Councils Struggle Over Smallpox Board of Health
A special joint meeting in Carbondale saw common council defend Mayor O Neill s action in hiring a doctor and a nurse to treat the Thompson smallpox patients and provide for the family. The dispute centered on confirming mayoral appointees to the board of health as select council delayed, adjourned, and redirected duties to the judiciary and legislation committee amid tense exchanges. The two patients remain under care with one recovering and the other critically ill, the latter in the confluent stage with fever and pus-filled lesions.
