The past week has been one of sickness, accidents, deaths and constant fear, and Spanish influenza and pneumonia has provided the biggest share of trouble. As we mentioned in our last issue, the south room in the Town Hall building on the first floor had been converted into an emergency hospital, and it turned out to have been a splendid piece of forethought, for shorty after preparations had been completed there was a demand for beds, and patients were taken in. The work was under the direction of the Red Cross, with Mrs. Helme, the President, working indefatigably night and day to provide for the patients who were afficted with the epidemic. Identified with Mrs. Helme were other members of the Red Cross, and volunteers did what they could to assist in the emergency. The physicians were convinced that the patients would receive attention in this way better than as though they were ; nd Heath Officer Derven has given advice here and there which has helped to allay much of the fear produced by reason of the spread of the malady. The first death occur was that of Claire Johnson, noticed in our last issue, and the second was that of Wallace T. Skeels, a man 67 years of age,and who came here from Troy in the Spring to take a position with the Gray Foundry. He passed away at about 6 o'clock on Thursday evening, and the remains were taken to Troy on Saturday morning. On Saturday afternoon occurred the death of Ernest Johnson, brother of Claire, and the death of his wife occurred on Sunday at the Emergency hospital,, the first to pass away there. On the same day (Saturday) Mr. and Mrs. Hermon T. Jones were taken to the hospital. His condition at this time was critical, and he gradually grew worse, the end coming on the morning of Tuesday. Mrs. Jones passed the crisis all right, and is now improving. Two children also survive Mr. Jones. Mrs. Hiram VanGuilder, living near the Furnace street bride, suffered for several days, and would not submit being taken to the hospital until it was too late. Her death occurred on Tuesday. IN OTHER TOWNS. Several severe cases of pneumonia developed at Wells, among which was that of Postmaster N. F. Lewis, whose death occurred on Saturday morning.
