25 Aug 1768:13 (120 Supplement)
To the Printer, Norfolk, August 6, 1768. Sir, This day
returned here some ladies and children, perfectly recovered
from the small-pox, which they have had by inoculation, in a
very favourable degree, under the care of Dr. John
Dalgleith, notwithstanding the cruel treatment they met with
from a mob. . . [3 columns, report] J-- C-- was observed to
be uncommonly busy among the people; and being asked his
intentions, declared that he would that night drive the
inoculated persons from Dr. Campbell's plantation or die in
the attempt. Accordingly he proceeded with a drum and flag,
and soon enlisted a considerable number fit for his
enterprize. . . Between four and five o'clock in the
afternoon the persons at the plantation were alarmed by drum
beating, and presently appeared Mr. P. L. . .
