A CARD
In reply to the card of Rev- J.
B. Culpepper in last week’s Lea¬
der, I will say first as the Bro.
made such a correct diagnosis of
his own case, he evidently has
missed his calling and should
have been an M. D. as he would
have made a successful diagnos¬
tician, which is very important
in medical profession. However
in regard to his advice as to what
a doctor should do in case of con¬
tagious disease, will say that I
was the physician attending the
Avera children who had scarlet
fever. At the first positive diag¬
nosis of scarlet fever, I informed
the Mayor who with me agreed
that as Mr. Avera did not live in
central part of town and if he
would follow directions given him
which would prevent the spread
of the disease, he himself might
be allowed some freedom, while
his family remained in quaran¬
tine. These precautions Mr. Av¬
era promised to take, and so far
as Bro. Culpepper knows has
lived up to it. However I could
not promise that there would be
no more cases in as much as the
first case in the family was not
regulated by a physician it being
of so mild a type that the child
had entirely recovered when I
was called to see second patient.
The public may rest assured
that in cases of contagious dis¬
eases the physicians and rnayar
Fort Valley will do their full
duty to prevent the spread of
such diseases, but let me say to
all they must have the co-opera¬
tion of the public. Respectfully,
J. R. KINNEY.
