George W. W., of 2, Stephen's Place, Tanswell Street, aged 19 years,
vaccinated, also contracted the disease from visiting his fiancee,
Lilian W., at 34, Doon Street. It will be noted that, of the original 8
inmates at the time the first case (William B.) occurred, 4 were
vaccinated, and of these, 2 were vaccinated at once, and escaped; 2
fused vaccination, and sickened. Of the 4 vaccinated persons (all ever
20 years of age) 1 was re-vaccinated at once, and escaped; 3 refused
re-vaccination, and 2 of these sickened. A vaccinated child of 2 years
of age was on and off exposed to infection for a period of 6 weeks, and
escaped.

1902, at the "Rose and Crown," Commercial Road, and was removed
to Hospital on February 2nd, 1902. Emily A. was a barmaid, and
probably contracted the disease in the course of her work. Of the 6
inmates at the time of the outbreak (3 adults and 3 children under 12
years of age), all vaccinated, 5 were re-vaccinated at once (it l.ot
being considered necessary to re-vaccinate a vaccinated child of 4 vears
of age). No case arose from this centre.

New Cut (dining-rooms), sickened January 28th, 1902, and was
moved to Hospital on February 2nd, 1902, having contracted her
disease, in all probability, at Brighton, where she visited on January
loth (13 days before sickening). Of the 6 inmates (5 adults and 1
infant of 6 months), 3 had been vaccinated, 2 (vaccinated) were
vaccinated at once, and the infant (unvaccinated) was vaccinated at
once. No secondary case occurred from this centre.
(74) William M. P., aged 28 years, vaccinated, contracted Smallpox
whilst working as a carpenter at the temporary (Smallpox) Hospital at
Dartford, without being previously re-vaccinated. He sickened on
January 28th, 1902, at 59, Thurlow Hill, and was removed to Hospital
on February 2nd, 1902. Of the 6 inmates (4 adults and 2 children
under 12 years) of 59, Thurlow Hill, all were re-vaccinated at once,
with the exception of the vaccinated infant of 9 months, and all
escaped.
(75 and 76) Two cases occurred at 112, Lower Marsh, but the source
of the infection was not successfully traced, viz., Ada P. (vaccinated),
aged 23 years, and Bertie W. D. (unvaccinated), aged 10 years. At
the time of the outbreak there were 7 inmates (4 adults and 3 children
under 12 years of age), and of these 4 were unvaccinated (1 adult and
3 children). Two unvaccinated children were vaccinated at once. No
secondary case occurred.

vaccinated.
