Mayor and Council. To the Honorable Mayor and City Council of Cedar City, Utah. ...Whereas, at a meeting of the Board of Health of Cedar City, Utah held at the residence of D r . George W . Middleton, it was moved by the Health Officer of Cedar City that all closets without vaults, where the excretion is allowed to remain on the surface of the ground, be declared a public nuisance and a menace to the health and lives of the citizens. Said motion in resolution was carried unanimously by the City Board of Health. Said closets, as described above, are hereby declared a public nuisance, and we recommend that your honorable body forthwith pass an ordinance compelling the citizens to comply with this order. Very respectfully, J . H . McDonald-Health Officer. Sept. 1 0 , 1 9 0 4 . . .(From: Iron County Record) "Resolution of The Board of Health" Resolved t h a t , in view of the widespread rumors concerning the sanitary conditions of Cedar City, we deem it advisable to make the following statement: W have duly investigated this matter and find e that there have been reported up to date for the season, only fourteen cases of Typhoid Fever, seven of which have recovered, six are still ill, and one died. The one death is the only death from any infectious disease during the present year. No new cases of Typhoid have been reported for several d a y s , and from our experience of previous y e a r s , it seems reasonably certain that there will be no more cases this season. In view of these facts, we think that the fear that people have had of coming to Cedar is without foundation, a s our death record will show Cedar City to be one of the most healthful localities in the State of Utah. Signed: John Parry and J. H. McDonald from the Board of Health The following also appeared in the Iron County Record on the same date: "Coal Creek is All Right" In order to determine the sanitary condition of the creek and the character of the water that we were drinking, the Board of Health decided to send at least one of their number to make an examination of the creek bed from the mouth of the canyon to the head waters, so that they would know just what the people were drinking. Accordingly Honorable John Parry and Constable Isaac Haight started up the canyon last Tuesday. It took them nearly three days to make the trip and Mr. Parry says that he would not undertake another such job for double wages. They followed the creek up as f a r as the forks and from there followed the Righthand Canyon climbing up waterfalls, crawling through the overhanging brush and willows, following the course that the water takes and closely examining the banks for dead sheep o r other animals, b u t they found none, although they went up to Middleton's Ranch in their determination to be thorough. They also followed u p the Urie Hollow and examined that branch, but with the same results, and the only dead animal that they found on that
