A Strauge Sickness.
A report reached us this morning of
a strange sickness which occurred during
the recent Baptist Association near
Bickley, in this county, on Saturday last.
It seems that a nuniber of persons went
to the houss of a brother baptist for the
purpose of spending the night. Soon
after eating a late dinner the guests be
gan to be taken sick with gripings and
vomiting and in a short time nineteen
persons were down and to all appearan
ces many of them seemed likely to die
in a short time.
Their sufferings were acute in the ex
treme. The country' was aroused, and
Dr. Dillon, of Bickley, was on the
ground as quickly as possible, and it is
thought that liis prompt action saved
many lives. Some of the sick did not
recover until near day the next morning.
The gentleman of the house was one of
the sickest of the party.
Mr. J. B. Jones, of Waycross, was
among those taken, and a gentleman
who was there informs u? that at one
time he thought the old gentleman
would certainly die. No one present
had ever seen such a case before.
The cause of the sickness is yet un
known, though some suppose,.the doc
tor among the number, that they had
eaten some food that was soured, and
caused terrible cholera morbus. At last
accounts the patients were all doing
Veil, most of them having entirely re
covered/
A number of the sick had to be haul
ed home Sunday morning. No one re
grets the occurance so much as the gen
tleman at whose house it happend.
A Hint.
A clergymau was once annoyed by
people talking and giggling during the
service. lie paused, looked at the dis
turbers and said: “Some years sincr,
as I was preaching, a young man who
sat before me was constants laughing,
talking and making uncouth glances.
I paused and administered a severe re
buke. After the close of the service a
genlleman said to me: ‘Sir, you made
a great mistake; that young man was an
idiot.’ Since then, I have always been:
afraid to reprove those who misbehave
in chapel, lest I should repeat that
mistake and reprove another idiot”
During the rest ot the service there was
good order.
