{Health Beard Takes Action In Diph-
theria Case at (he Wilbur House.
| Miss Anna Donahue, who has been
employed at the Wilbur House and
{dining room girl , for some time, is
{suffering from an attack of the diph-
| theria, and at a meeting of the health
{board held last night Health Officer
‘Brougham was Instructed to quaran-
‘tine the western annex to the hotel,
the room occupied by Miss Donahue
{belug located In that portion of the
(hotel. When Dr. H. S. Fish, the at-
tending physician, first reported the
case 10 the board of health, the gues-
tion of placing the entire hotel under
quarantine was first deemed advis-
able, but ‘when the matter was looked
into thoroughly It was conceded that
the borough might be liable for dam-
ages that might result from closing
up the hostelsy. In order to settle
the matter a meeting of the board
iwas called for last evening It de-
veloped that the diphtheria patient oc-
upled a room in what is known as the
western annex. The room is located
on the fourth floor and is practically
isolated from the general public
When these facts became known to
the board it was the consensus of op-
inion among the members of the
board that the interests of the public
would be effectually protected by
placing the western annex under
quarantine. The health board also
ordered that those who had been oc-
cupying rooms in the western annex
should remove to other quarters.
After the meeting of the board of
Health Officer Brougham went to the
hotel! and placed a rope at the head
of the stairs leading to the annex A
sheet was hung on this rope and th:
quarantine card has been attached to
the sheet.
The patient is reported this morn-
ing to be improving slowly and the
disease Is of a mild type
