One Sunday three men were walking from Bool's Island to the town, when, on nearing it, one of the number was suddenly stricken with the dread disease. His companions hur- (39) ried him, with all speed, to the doctors, and from there he was taken to an Irish boarding house, located on the southeast corner of Main and Lilly streets, but the terrified inmates re- fused him admittance, so he was carried to the barn and made as comfortable as the circum- stances would permit, but he died in the cour...se of a few hours. The next morning his com- panions took his clothing and whatever blan- kets had been used about him, carried them on long poles across the meadow and buried them back of the Baptist Church on what is now Ferry street. This was the first case. The entire com- munity was dreadfully alarmed, as they had ample cause to be. The late x\shbel Welch, then a young civil engineer in the employ of the Canal Company, at once took an active part in organizing a Board of Health, procur- ing hospital accommodations and providing a "Potter's Field" for the burial of its victims.
