Bradstreet say: "As many unfounded reports have been circulated respecting the sickness in this village the present season, unfavorable impressions have been made which may discourage many from settling among us. Everyone knows where a dense population exists, the inhabitants are liable to disease; and, in our latitude, to autumnal complaints. A great part of our people have been ill of fever and ague, but in many cases have been relieved by medical aid. The proportion of deaths among the citizens of this village has been but little or no larger than in the most healthy parts of the mountainous country of New England; and for some years past has actually been less than the general average through our country. This year there has doubtless been some local causes operating to produce disease. We are not quite sure what the causes are. It may be stagnant water, which has lain in the canal for months without an outlet from the basins, and to the alluvial soil thrown up from the channel, exposed to the sun and undergoing decomposition; or, it may be caused from the high state of the water in the Lake, which has inundated the ground near the mouth of the river. Probably both of these causes have had their results, but will cease to exist in another year. "Had the unusual sickness been confined to the village, we might safely attribute it to the above causes; but other places in this vicinity, proverbial for healthiness, have shared as largely of disease as ourselves."

HOMICIDES (8) (4) (11) 251-1/2 H Mar. 2; ed: 3/2,3 The unfortunate Morgan affair of New York state forms a prominent subject in almost every paper we open. "We say unfortunate, because we think it is most truly so. That such was the fact, as to the hero of the tragedy, and with a vengeance too, cannot be doubted." Most assuredly is it so in reference to the Masonic fraternity, for however pure its principles, and upright and praiseworthy the conduct of its members as a body, certain of them have grossly violated the laws of God and their country in the person of a free cit izen, whose birthright it was to enjoy "life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.' ་་ Great exertions are now being made in western New York to unravel this mystery and bring the offender to light and punishment. According to several letters which have been published, and which have been written by respectable gentlemen who are engaged in the investigation. "We do not doubt but the writer received the information which he communicates, but yet it may be incorrect, for the secret was too important to the parties concerned, to be divulged (sic) for slight causes.' Morgan was taken to Fort Niagara September 13, and from a Mason of high degree, in Newark, U.C. that Morgan was confined in the Magazine at Fort Niagara, that on the night of Sept. 14, he was tried condemned and executed by having his throat cut from ear to ear and his tongue cut out. His body was sunk in the lake or river. The Masons at Leiviston were quite insolent, about the matter and said if they had done anything with Morgan it was their own busines. The state of society is shocking. The Masons in Lewiston seem determined to frighten the people into silence. (21) |
