Thanks to the Medical Health Officer Sheard and the cordial co-operation of the Richelieu & Ontario Naviga- tion Company, Toronto has been res- cued from an awful danger. At 10.30 on Saturday night, Dr. Shea.rd received a message from Belleville, informing him that a man - who was suspected of having small- pox had escaped teem the authorities there and had boa 1 ded the steamer Passport., of the Rienelieu & Ontario NavigatIon Company, bound for Toronto. Instantly the doctor real- ized the necessity fur pit/14e action., Professor Shuttleworth was summon ed and soon every officer of the Health Department was on the jump Steam Disenfector Hawthorne and. an assistant were despatched to the iso- ation hospital to make all necessary arrangements for the reception of a smallox patient, should one be found on the steawer. The next thing to be done was to make provision to prevent the steam- er from landing her passengers Or in any way make infec- tion possible. A tug was secured and the officers and assistants went out to met the Passport. R. II, Whitney, about 30 yeats of age just out from Glasgow was the victim, and Dr. Sheard had him re moved from the Passport, which was at the eastern entrance to the Hale bor, to the isolation hospital. The Unfortunate man's head was overed with pox marks, and he was in a high fever. • The steamer was disinfected and the passengers vaceinated by Prof. Snuttleworth. The Passport will betakes off the line for the remainder dale season. . . , , • • • . - • . .
