REMARKS.

NO. OF LINE	REMARKS.
	In the case of Ebenezer Trefry (No. 1), the wife stated that the fits were not noticed until after they came to Iowa, but the neighbors are sure that the disease was contracted on the ocean while he was yet a sailor.
	Fry (No. 4) the mother has the dropsy.
	Roundy (No. 16) Doctors were unable to tell the cause of death. The child, stout and healthy, gradually pined away and died, apparently without any disease.
