The Chargé in Liberia (Wharton) to the Secretary of State

52. Referring to the Legation’s No. 51, September 22, 11 p.m. Dr. Walcott has seen case one Liberian which he believes is yellow fever. Expresses the hope to prolong visit if further cases of yellow fever appear.

I have informed him of the request to Department for sanitary engineer, and I have no apprehensions whatever that he appreciates necessity of such a measure.
