MINTII BIENNIAL REPORT. 81 bacilli, would pass through the digestive apparatus of the cow and be finally secreted in the milk and become a source of contamination, hi fact, every statement to this efTect has been denied upon good authority. If the cows stood in water deep enough to cover the udders, the milk might be contaminated from the germs left on the teats, but as the cows would not probably use this pasture in time of high water, this contention seemed to us to be very far-fetched. In short, the undersigned did not find any reason to condemn the sewer complained of, nor was there any evidence adduced to justify the opinion that any sickness had occurred in the town of Blowing Rock from the sewage matter deposited in the stream from the Green Park Hotel, Blowing Rock Hotel or Mrs. Stringfellow's boarding-house. They are, therefore, compelled to refuse their approval to the ordinance of the town which was intended to enjoin the further use of the stream for the disposal of sewage matter from the Green Park Hotel. This committee from the Board of Health desire in this connection to thank your Mayor, Dr. C. T. Parlier, for his earnest and intelligent aid in this inspection, and for his very courteous treatment extended to us during our stay in your midst. Yours verv truly, Geo. Gillett Thomas, M. D., Richard H. Lewt:s. M. D., August 14, 1901. Committee. st. mary's school, at raleigh.. Raleigh, X. C., Xovember 13, 1902, Rev. T. D. Brattox, D. D., Rcctor St. Mary's School, Raleigh, ~S. C. Dear Sir:—In compliance with your request I made, on Monday, 10th inst., with a view to locating, if possible, the cause of the suspected case of typhoid fever in the person of one of the pupils, a sanitary inspection of the school and premises. In the course of the inspection I took a sample of drinking water for analysis by the State Biologist, from the main cooler, which I understood you to say is generally used by the girls, and also one from the well which, while not generally used for drinking purpoi^es, might be partaken of. I found the plumbing in excellent condition and nothing unsanitary about the premises. The Biologist reports both samples of water pure and imcontaminated, and that the water ''could not have caused typhoid." In my opinion, therefore, there is nothing about the school to which tlie attack can be attributed. Health-6
