—Oob———-
It is reported, that the epidemic of '
measles among the children who at-
tended the reception tendered on New.
Year’s day by the members of Phoenix
engine company to their wivefi add chil-
dren,was caused by the action of one of
the members having his child present,
the child at the time being sick with
measles. He of course did not realize
the risk and apparently deeply regrets
the outcome.
