To the Public
Believing they should take every possible step to stamp
out small pox the city authorities called on the slate board of
health to inspect their work as it was being done Dr W
H Wilson of Lincoln representing that body made a very
thorough and careful investigation of conditions in McCook
and upon his departure handed me the following certificate
Does this look good to you

MRS J T KENDLEN
MISS M STEVENS
McCook Neb January 22 1908
I hereby certify that I put in the afternoon carefully in
vestigating the small pox situation in McCook and find that
the health officer and city board of health have the situation
well in hand and are faithfully and vigorously carrying out
the quarantine rule and regulations of the state board of
health and I believe that in the near future the disease will
be stamped out I further find that no deaths have occurred
and none likely to occur as the disease is in a mild form I
have no hesitancy in saying to the public that in my opinion
the public may come and go and transact business without
danger of contracting the disease the same as if it did not
exist W H Wilson M D

North Platte Neb Jan 20 While
alone in the farm house this afternoon
the fifteen-year-old daughter of George
Schickloy living seven miles southwest
of Wellfleet this county was brutally
assaulted by a strangor who is tonight
being pursued by a large posse which
hopes to capture him before morning
The girls assailant entered the house
about the middle of vthe afternoon beat
tho girl over the bead with a beer bot
tle till she was Houseless and dragged
her body to a secluded place about a
half mile away The girl latter recover
ed consciousness and told the people
who found her that she would be able
to identify the stranger if he could be
brought before her It was not known
tonight whether or not Mihs Schickley
would recover
The affair caused great excitement in
Lincoln and Hayes counties the farm
house being just across the line in the
latter county A posse was hastily or
ganized and set out in pursuit of the
stranger At midnight the posse was
at Curtis in Frontier county and sent
back word that it was only a few min

were sent for from Lincoln
The Lincoln police rect ived this tele
gram from J C Hamilton constable

The latest information The Tribune
obtains from the above case is to the
effect that tho indications are that the
assault if one was really committed
was made by pirties living in that
neighborhood At any rate it is claimed
that the girl refuses to attempt identifi
cation of the parties although it is
claimed that at least one of them has
been apprehended
