ISLAND QUARANTINE AREA HELD FOR 5 or 10 days
July - 1888
"The Biloxi Herald" - July 7, 1888
Persons vho do not wish to remain in Quarantine five or ten days had better fight shy of the Quarantine Station at Ship Island.
Dr. Carter’s motto is absolute non-intercourse and he means to carry it out.
One day this week a party of four from Mobile accidentally run into Quarantine grounds and when ordered to come to an anchor by the Quarantine Officer they refused to do so. They were promptly brought to by rifles and olaced in quarantine for five days. The Captain of the yacht is known as "Red Bill."
Biloxi and the kbss entire coast is to be congratulated on having such an able and determined gentleman in charge of the Station at Ship Island.
