...call for help has been made to Boston and its vicinity from the town of Brunswick, Georgia. In August the yellow fever appeared in the town, and, while the rich could flee, the poor had to remain and die. Not only this, but business was suspended and the poor that survive are in desperate circumstances, and must depend on the charities of outsiders.
