At the table
Mow's predecessor there traced the Well Fever to the burial grounds in 4588. It takes a quart a day of spring water. Mow's casebook tracks the stone deaths, child mortality in the low ground and unexplained Yellow Ward presentations; he found the Brethren's attendances followed wet autumns.
