One.day, at the height of the season, two we call a ‘double room.’ About a week later.one of them appeared at the office and requested a private interview with the manager. ‘I regret to inform you,’ he said, after the door was closed, ‘that my friend is down with a severe attack of/smallpox.’ : “The proprietor nearly fell out of his chair. There was kndéwn to be smallpox in the city, and the bare suggestion that the disease had appeared in the hotel was enough to empty it in a twinkling. To let the news get out meant the loss of thousands upon thousands of dollars. It meant the ruin of the season’s. business. ‘He.must be quietly removed at once,” said the proprietor, trying to control his agitation.“Removed! exclaimed. the other. ‘Taken. through the cold air to a lazeretto!

The hotel keeper dare not enforce his suggestion, while to let the case remain was like storing gunpowder in a furnace room. He pleaded, protested, begged, threatened and blustered, but all in vain. The man was firm as a rock. ‘If you attempt to eject my sick friend,’ he declared, ‘I’l) publish your inhumanity to the entire community.’ “Finally it occurred to the distracted proprietor to see, first, whether it was really a case of smallpox. So he sent for a physiciah, Swore him to secrecy and hustled him up to the room. The doctor took one look at the disfigured face on the pillow and reported that 4 the malady was there in a malignant type.
