Palatka, Fla. Dec 4th 1888
His Excellency
E. A. Perry
Tallahassee Fla.
Dear Sir!
We have been kept so busy during the
past three months that we did not make the
usual semi-monthly reports, as you requested.
In discharging our duties we
have had much to contend with; but we
feel thankful in having been successful
in keeping our county free from infection;
and can report that up to this date, there
has been no case of yellow fever in Putnam
County. –
The Quarantine has cost the county so
far about $7,000, and the city of Palatka
about $5,500 – making a total of $12,500 00/100
Yours very respt.
Louis C. Canora
Secretary
