Dr. Z. TAYLOR Appointed to Small Pox Hospital (1866)
Small Pox
Dr. Z. TAYLOR has accepted the appointment as physician to the Small Pox Hospital, in which he reports twenty-two cases, up to date. There are outside cases, here and there, but we know not the number. Dr. TAYLOR requests us to state that the precaution taken by him, after his visits to such cases, preclude the danger of his communicating the disease to others. We again urge the importance of vaccination as the only safeguard; and it is almost criminal in any one to neglect the precaution. — Clarksville Chronicle 3d.
