-Refused to be Vaccinated.
Au Instance iu Which Compulsory
Vaccination Would Haro ,
Saved Life. ..
b
Newberry Observer.
The following, which is vouched
for by a Columbia physician, may
prove interesting reading to some j
Newberrians who are kicking j
against compulsory vaccination:
A man at the Granby mill till- ^
ago in Columbia refined to bo ^
vrceinated and would not permit
bis family to be, and as it was not .
compulsory ho had his own way ^
about it. Shortly afterwards he ^
took the smallpox and died. Just ^
before he died his physician told ^
him of his condition nad said it
he wanted to leave any request he j
must do it quick. His response
was that ho wanted his wifo and
Ci
children vaccinatod at once. IIis .(
request was carried out; hut his
wife came near dying too, as the j
vaccination had not had timo to
act as a preventive or modifier of u
the disease.
