THE SMALL-POX IN SYDNEY.
SECOND EDITION
[Bt Cable]. Sydney, July 12. The smallpox is increasing, though its progress is slow. A fresh case was reported yesterday, the person attacked being a woman living in the suburbs of Ultimo (sic). There are now twelve infected houses in the city and suburbs. A Smallpox Board has been appointed to devise fresh means for preventing the spread of the disease, and a special quarantine station is now in course of erection at Little Bay, in Port Jackson, where all small-pox patients will be sent.
Another case of smallpox has been reported to the Board of Health to-day. The sufferer is Elizabeth Templeton, who lives with her parents in Pyrmont, one of the suburbs adjoining the city. The family has been placed in quarantine.
