The Fourth of a Family Dies with Scarlet Fever [Cecil Whig, 4 Feb. 1882]
In our last issue we made a melancholy announcement of the death, within a few days, of scarlet fever, of three of the young children of Mr. and Mrs. Samuel R. Carson, of Ashland, near Port Deposit. On the 19th ult., Samuel R., the youngest of the family, aged seventeen months, died of this dread disease. This was followed, on Tuesday 24th, by the death of John, aged four years; and on Wednesday 25th, Walter, five years old, breathed his last.
Another victim of this dread disease is yet to be added to this mounful list. On Friday, 27th ult., two days after the death of Walter, Sara R., aged seventeen months, followed her three little brothers to the spirit land. This is one of the most melancholy cases it has ever been our duty to chronicle. Much sympathy is felt for the afflicted parents throughout the entire community where they reside, and all seem eager to tender their best offices.
