MAYOR'S REPORT.
CITY OP-SAVANNAH,
MAYOR'S OFFICE, January 1st, 1877.
To tlie Citizens of Savannah :
The reports of the several Departments of the City
Government for the year 1876 are herewith submitted..
As will be seen by reference to the Treasurer's
Report, the available resources for the year were as
follows :
Cash in Treasury, January 1, 1876, $ 5,028 82
Income from all sources, - - - 440,841 03
Mayor's notes discounted, and loans
during the year, 79,064 32$524,934 17
The expenditures were:
City Bonds redeemed, - - - - 49,000 00
Suspense Account, 42,000 00
Coupons paid, ------ 190,701 00
Interest on Mayor's Notes, - - 17,835 77
Ordinary Expenses, 224,651 54 524,188 31
Balance on hand, --------- $745 86
Included in bills payable above are notes amount
ing to $40,000 00, given to the banks here for $42,000 00
Muscogee Railroad bonds paid by them, and which
they hold as collateral for the payment of the same.
The settlement of these notes will lessen bills payable
$40,000 00, and retire $42 000 00 bonds, which ap
pear in suspense account, as above.
I cannot more clearly set forth the financial condi
tion of the city than to reiterate, in substance, in this
Report the statement of our affairs as presented to
4 MAY'OB S ANNUAL REPORT.
Council recently in'behalf of the Finance Committee.
Upon a review of the past four years, during which
the present Board of Aldermen, with few exceptions,
have been continued in office by successive elections,
it appears that when they took charge of the city in
1873, they found an existing floating debt of $396,-
656 29, for which no special provision had been made,
and that bonds were soon to become due as follows :
$99,500 Opelika Railroad in 1874, $27,340 Springfield
Plantation in 1875, and $99,000 Muscogee Railroad
due in 1876aggregating a bonded obligation to be
provided for, separate and distinct from the floating
debt above cited, of $225,840. To meet these liabili
ties in part, $324,730 was realized from the sale of
$400,000 bonds authorized at the meeting of free
holders held on the 14th of January, 1873, and to
meet the balance as well as its current expenses, the
city could only rely upon its ordinary resources, of
which taxation was the chief.
It was hoped that by strict economy and a reduc
tion of expenditures, wherever possible, these re
sources would prove equal to the occasion.
This policy has been earnestly pursued, but the
object in view has been defeated, as will now be ex
plained. The system of taxation which had been
pursued by different administrations for many years
as apparently satisfactory to the public, which the
present Board found in operation when it came into
office, and which it simply adhered to as an estab
lished system, was unexpectedly discovered, only late
in 1874, to be in conflict in its principal feature with
one of the provisions of the State Constitution of 1868,
and proceedings were commenced by several citizens
to obtain an injunction against the city to prevent the
collection of the taxes alleged to be thus illegal. It
was then too late to correct the defect in the Tax Ordi
nance already passed, or to provide new taxes for the
year 1874. And as it was absolutely necessary to
MAYOR'S ANNUAL REPORT. 5
meet the current expenses of the City, Council contin
ued to receive taxes under these ordinances from all,
that would voluntarily pay, but was obviously unable
to enforce payment from any. Thus, not only those
citizens who had applied for the injunction, but all
who would not voluntarily pay, withheld their taxes
from the Treasury, thereby entailing great actual loss,
and resulting finally in compelling the administra
tion to stop the payment of its coupons, increasing
the public debt, and forcing a condition of things in
the highest degree detrimental to all private as well
as public interests. ^
In framing the Tax Ordinance for the year 1875,
the illegal feature of previous ordinances was aban
doned. But similar litigation was commenced with
regard to that ordinance also, which it has not yet
been possible, with every endeavor, to bring to a final
issue, but is still pending as to the main question in
volved.
The Supreme Court has decided during the progress
of this litigation that the collection of the City Reve
nue could not be thus interrupted by injunction, but
this decision was announced late in the present 3
r
ear,
so that the pendency of the controversy had the same
effect upon the coiiection of the taxes for 1875 and
1876 as in 1874.
The City Government was scarcely set free from the
operation of the temporary injunction thus disap
proved by the Supreme Court, than the yellow fever
appeared in our midst. The ravages of this scourge
are known to all. It is needless to enlarge upon them
at this point, or upon its disastrous effects upon all
pecuniary interests. Distressed as the Treasury was,
it was no time to pursue our unfortunate citizens with
demands for taxes, whether for other reasons, they
had merited the clemency or not. Forbearance was
imperatively demanded by a decent respect for the
common misfortune.
6 MAYOR'S ANNUAL REPORT.
By these means the Revenue of the city has unex
pectedly fallen short during the present administrationjin the following amounts :
Taxfcs for 1874 $10,837 69
Taxes for 1875 - - - 51,602 28
Taxes for 1876 - - - 200,619 01
$263,058 98
To which should be added :
Due by Chatham county to jail ac
count -27,103 20
Due by other counties to jail account - 3,201 6030,304 80
Total $293,363 78
Deprived of these resources, and having no other at
command, and compelled nevertheless to carry on the
government of the city in all departments, Council
was under the necessity of resorting to the expedient
of loans from time to time. In this way the current
ordinary wants of the city have been met, and the
bonds before mentioned have been cared for. But
these loans necessarily drew interest, and the public
debt has been thus further increased. Instructions
were given the City Treasurer to receive coupons in
the payment of all taxes, and in this way $17,472 have
been liquidated.
Had the large sums due on taxes, as before stated,
or the greater part of them been collected, as they
would have been but for the litigation referred to, the
reasonable hopes of Council would have been realized,
and the floating debt of the city reduced to an incon
siderable sum, notwithstanding the paralyzing effects
of the summer epidemic.

16 MAYOR'S ANNUAL REPORT.
In compliance with the recommendation of a special
committe of Council, appointed in June last, to report
upon such further retrenchment in the expenditures of
the city government as in their judgment might be
deemed expedient, the police force has been reduced
from sixty-four privates to fifty-one men, one of whom
is assigned on special duty at the Mayor's office. This
reduction has been brought about gradually by resig
nation and deaths, there having been but one dismiss
al and four dropped for desertion. One Lieutenant and
one Sergeant having resigned, Council, by ordinance,
abolished the office of Second Lieutenant and reduced
the number of Sergeants to five. The force now con
sists of one Chief, one Lieutenant, five Sergeants, and
fifty-one Privates, paid by the city, maintained at a
cost daring the past year of $57,508 35, (including pay
rolls for two months of $8,007 08 since paid), being
a reduction of $17,694 27, as compared with the
expense of the departments in 1875.* Both officers
and men, with a few exceptions, stood nobly to their
duty, and in the trying ordeal of the past summer
manifested a patient courage aud manhood worthy
of all praise. At no time in the midst of the gloom,
which overhung our city, were their duties neglected,
or our streets left without guardians, though the
record shows that more than seventy-seven per cent,
of the force were stricken with the epidemic, and that
nearly twelve per cent, fell victims from its effects
whilst in the discharge of their duty.
In the Street and Lane Department the operations
have been confined mainly to keeping the thorough
fares and lanes in good condition and order, no new
work of magnitude having been undertaken. In con
sequence of the decayed state of the Stowe pavement
on the Bay, it became necessary to repave the south
ern side of the street with stone for a distance of three
hundred and seventy-five feet, equal to two thousand
*The cost of Jail Guard not embraced in the above, not forming: part of
Police force proper.
MAYOR'S ANNtTAL REPORT. 17
square yards. A deficiency of paving material pre
vented the completion of the north side. Whitaker
street, from Bay to Gaston, has been resurfaced, over
four thousand square yards having been taken up
and relaid. Other minor repairs to paved streets have
been attended to, amounting to about ten thousand
square yards in this branch of the street work. The;
expenditure in this department for the past year, as
will be seen by the Treasurer's report, is $19,198 71.
For detailed statement on drains, catch basins, sew
ers, etc., see report of the City Surveyor.
The Fire Department has been efficiently conducted.
By the report of the Chief it appears that during the
past year there have been fifty fires in the city, two of
which were disastrous, viz.: the burning of Kelly's
and Stoddard's blocks, on the night of the 25th of
August, and the conflagration in the Central Railroad
cotton yard November 13th. One thousand feet of
new leather hose have been purchased for the Depart
ment to supply the want felt by the rapidly rotting
rubber hose. I would call the attention of my suc
cessor to the remarks of the Chief Engineer, under
the heads of "Water Supply" and "Fire Alarm Tele
graph." In the former, it is recommended that no
new water pipes of less than six inches diameter be
laid, as the pipes now in use are not of sufficient
capacity for the steam engines, and in the latter per
mission is asked to have the Alarm Telegraph thor
oughly overhauled ^nd put in satisfactory working
order. The addition of a shed and deck for the new
alarm bell at the Police Barracks is asked for to
render that auxiliary more efficient in extending an
alarm to all the volunteer members of the Depart,
ment. It is also recommended that the erection
of sheds along the line of the wharves be restricted in
width, in order that greater security to the buildings
contiguous may be afforded in case of fire, as well as
18 MAYOR'S ANNUAL REPORT.
to enable the engines to be posted to advantage in
such contingency. A statement in detail of the prac
tical working and affairs of this branch of the city
service will be found in the report of the Chief Engi
neer. The cost of maintaining the Department during
the past year has been $13,547 69.
After a period of eighteen years of unexampled
health, and an exemption from epidemic of any kind,
our community was startled in the month of August
last by the announcement that the yellow fever had
broken out in the Eastern part of the city.
The first recorded death from yellow fever occurred
on August the 21st, on Wright street, a short cul de
sac, about fifty yards long, the culmination of Bryan
street, in the northeastern part of the city, viz.: James
P. Cleary. The second occurred in the same street
and same locality, August 22nd. viz.: Joseph Lynch.
The third and fourth, August 26th, same locality,
viz.: John Lynch and Mrs. John Lynch. The fifth
occurred, August 26th, on East Broad street, two
doors north of Broughton, viz.: Michael Delaney.
The sixth took place August 27th, on Reynolds street,
next to Gas House, viz.: Mary Ann Smye. The sev
enth, August 27th. in Broughton street, three doors
west of Reynolds, viz.: Mary Kehoe. The eighth,
August 27th, on East Boundary street, north end, viz.:
Catherine Kehoe. The ninth, August 27th, in Ran
dolph and President streets, viz.: Frederick Lawson.
On the 28th of August there are five deaths record
ed, one which took place on Stone street, Mrs. Mary
E.'Malcomes ; one on State street, between Whitaker
and Barnard, Edward L. Drummond, and the remain
ing three in the northeastern part of the city.
On the 29th of Augnst three deaths occurred : One
on Indian lane, W. M. Thompson, the other two not
specified.
After this the disease spread rapidly, and was not
confined to any locality. The highest number of
MAYOR'S ANNUAL REPORT. 19
deaths in the city from yellow fever in any one day
was thirty-three, on the 20th of September. The high
est number from all causes, forty-two, on the 23d of
September. These occurred in the fifth week of the
epidemic, embracing the period between the 18th and
24th of September, during which week there are re
ported 229 deaths from all causes.
From the 21st of August until the 14th of Novem
ber, inclusive, a period of eighty seven days, the total
mortality from all causes, whites and colored, reached
1,351, this number being subdivided as follows, viz.:
Whites, yellow fever, 771 ; colored, yellow fever, 125.
Total yellow fever, 896. Whites, other diseases, 160 ;
colored, other diseases, 295 ; total 455. Of this latter
total of 455 deaths from other diseases, there have
occurred in this city among the whites 38 deaths, from
such diseases as have been reported to the sextons of
the three cemeteries, as malarial fever, pernicious
fever, fever, congestive fever, bilious fever, convul
sions, etc., a large portion of which were probably
directly due to the pernicious influence of the epi
demic, and many of them, in all probability, were
genuine cases of yellow fever.
Among the colored there occurs in the same cate
gory 132. If the above inference is correct, the report
of the mortality during the epidemic would exhibit
the following figures : Deaths from yellow fever
whites, 809; colored, 257 ; total, 1,066. Other dis
easeswhites, 122 ; colored, 163 ; total, 285. The in
ference is corroborated by a comparison with the
usual death rate of preceding years, during the same
period, when there has not been any epidemic of yel
low fever prevailing. In the period embraced between
the 21st of August and the 14th of November, the
epidemic being declared by the physicians at an end
on the latter date, there were forty interments of yel
low fever in the several cemeteries, of persons who
were brought dead to the city from different points,
20 MAYOR'S ANNUAL REPORT.
viz.: Isle of Hope, Whitesville, Thunderbolt, etc.
After the 14th of November, six deaths from yellow
fever occurred in the city among the whites and one
among the colored, and three white persons were
brought dead to the city for interment. The last re
corded death from yellow fever in the city occurred
December 1st.
The origin of the epidemic is involved in obscurity,
and a great difference of opinion exists among the
physicians as to whether the disease is indigenous to
our climate or exotic. A Special Committee appoint
ed by Council and the Benevolent Association, have
this subject under investigation, and will, in due time,
report the result of their labors.
Dr. Wm. Duncan has prepared a carefully elabo
rated history of the epidemic, from its commence
ment to its close, which he has kindly consented to
publish as an addendum to this Report. I have been
permitted to verify the figures given in the brief state
ment above presented from his data.
The history of the terrible pestilence which devas
tated our unfortunate city would be incomplete, with
out grateful recogaition of the generous efforts made
to alleviate our distress. As soon as it became appa
rent that yellow fever was epidemic in Savannah,
almost the entire population whose circumstances per
mitted, withdrew from our limits, leaving only those
who, from the requirements of official position, or an
elevated sense of duty, felt constrained to remain.
The small white population possessed of any means
or experience were at once burdened with a large
mass of their fellow-citizens, both white and colored,
entirely dependent upon their daily labor, and who at
once lost their only means of support upon the sud
den prostration of all business. The cry of humanity
went up from our gloom and desolation like a wail of
woe, and the health and life of large numbers awaited
the response of the good and generous in other com-
MAYOR'S ANNUAL REPORT. 21
munities. From every quarter of oar broad land the
relief was prompt and ample. Our brethren cast
their bread upon the waters, and charity and kind
ness in copious streams flowed into our city. The
terrible voice of the pestilence that stalked through
our midst could not drown the softer notes of human
sympathy and tenderness, and the holy ministrations
of a Divine charity with the cheering radiance of hope
and brotherly love pierced the thick darkness that en
shrouded us. To the prompt and liberal responses of
our Northern brethren, and our sister communities,
we owe the lives of hundreds of our people. We
thank them for the alleviation of thousands of cases
of sore distress, for comfort brought to the bed of
sickness, for consolation to the dying, for hope and
encouragement to all. The links of human charity
are stronger than political connections, and the influ
ence of such sympathy and kindness unites us in a
common brotherhood. May the Universal Father
spare from the sorrows that have come home to us
the good and generous friends who ministered to our
wants, and cheered and sustained us through the
weary days of our tribulation.
Respectfully submitted.
EDWARD C. ANDERSON,
Mayor.

During the late fearful epidemic, commencing on
the 21st of August and ending about the 21st of No
vember, the Department had forty-seven out of an
aggregate of sixty-three stricken down with yellow
fever, myself, the Clerk, and fourteen privates only
escaping. With the exception of four Privates, who
basely deserted their command and were stricken in
disgrace from the rolls on the 8th of September by
your Honor, the members of the Department, I am
proud to saj'', with characteristic courage, zeal and
fidelity, responded nobly to their stricken and devas
tated City, in her hour of distress and affliction. At
no time was the routine of duty ever neglected or in
terrupted, and, in addition to the ordinary duties of
the Officers, the sick members of the Department and
their families were regularly and systematically vis
ited every day, and their wants and necessities not
only supplied, but every comfort and attention be
stowed. The duties of the Sanitary Inspectors were
most carefully performed.
A very careful and accurate Census of the City, col
lated with much care and attention, was concluded on
the 25th of October, 1876, showing a population of
7,353 whites and 11,614 colored ; total, 18,967.
In conclusion, permit me to return my sincere
thanks to your Honor for the warm sympathy, assist
ance and co-operation, which myself and the Depart
ment have been the recipients of, from you, especially

tried men's souls, and demanded unusual elasticity,
devotion and energy from all who had public duties
to perform.

REPORT OF CITY SURVEYOR.
CITY SURVEYOR'S OFFICE,
SAVANNAH, GA., January 1, 1877.
HON. E. C. ANDERSON,
Mayor:
DEAR SIR :I have the honor of herewith submit
ting my Report, for the year ending December 31,
1876:
STREETS AND LANES.
The work in this Department during the past year
has been confined almost exclusively to keeping the
Streets and Lanes of the City in good order, no new
work of any consequence having been undertaken.
A good force, numbering an average of twenty-four
men and seven teams with their drivers, have been
employed, as follows :
One Foreman, four Pavers, with four assistants,
four men cleaning out and flushing catch-basins con
nected with the sewers, one man putting down new
bridge crossings and repairing old ones, one man
sweeping crossings, one stable man, and eight men
cleaning gutters and water courses, restoring grades,
raking and grading the lanes, and such other gene
ral work as the Streets and Lanes of the City re
quired.
PAVING.
The Stowe Wood Pavement, on Bay Street, laid in
1871, owing to decay, has been in such bad condi
tion, that it was deemed advisable to repave with
cobble stone the Southern side of that portion of the
street covered by it. The distance paved is 675 feet,
44 MAYOR'S ANNUAL REPORT.
by a width of 25 feet, which, including adjoining
crossings, amount to 2,000 square yards of surface
paved. A deficiency in the supply of material,
usually brought as ballast in sailing vessels, has
hitherto rendered it impracticable to proceed with the
work.
Whitaker Street, having been re-surfaced through
out, from the Bay to Gaston Street, is now in good
condition. Over four thousand square yards have
been taken up and relaid.
Twelve new paved crossings have been put down,
requiring eight hundred and fifty square yards of
paving.
The lower end of West Broad Street, between Wil
liamson and Canal Streets, has been re surfaced,
amounting to one thousand square yards.
Other minor repairs have been made on the various
paved streets of the City, which, including the above,
would amount to about ten thousand square yards of
paving for the year.
CANAL BRIDGE.
This structure over the Savannah and Ogeechee
Canal, on Railroad Street, had become so much de
cayed, as to be dangerous. Upon undertaking to re
pair it, it was found to be in a condition to require re
building. With the exception of one truss, the
whole structure has been renewed, at a cost of
$389 06.
Seventy-five new bridges in the street crossings have
been put down.
DRAINS.
The Underground Wooden Drains, at the intersec
tion of Habersham and Gwinnett and Price and
Gwinnett Streets, and along Price Street, being in a
decayed condition, were taken up and renewed after
the heavy rains in June.
MAYOR'S ANNUAL REPORT. 45
CATCH BASINS.
The water inlets along Duffy Street, connecting
with the sewer, being untrapped and a source of an
noyance to persons living in the neighborhood, owing
to the escape of effluvia, were reconstructed with the
usual trap and water connections.
Upon the breaking out of the epidemic, the whole
street force was employed removing refuse from the
yards of the citizens living in the infected portions ;
and, subsequently, as the area embraced by the fever
increased, the work was kept up throughout the
whole City. ' Lime and other disinfectants were freely
used, not only in the yards, but on such portions of
the Streets and Lanes as appeared to require them.
The water supplying the Catch Basins was kept run
ning to an extent sufficient to supply any waste from
evaporation or leakage, and prevent the escape of
effluvia.
In this connection I would respectfully call your
Honor's attention to the fact, that some of the Catch
Basins on East Broad have no water supply, and
some on West Broad have not the usual trap arrange
ment The continued increase in the number of
closet connections renders it important that any
escape of the foul air, generated in the sewers, should
be carefully avoided.
DRY CULTURE.
At the date of my last Annual Report, an exten
sion of the new Canal, cut by the Central Rail Road,
had been made Southwardly, a distance of six hun
dred and forty-four feet, connecting it with the Spring
field Canal. Two large trunks had been put down at
the intersection of the new Canal with the old Bridge
Road. Though the connection with the Canal of the
Central Rail Road had been made, the work remained
incomplete, and was not resumed until May of the
present year. It was decided still further to widen
46 MAYOR'S ANNUAL REPORT.
the portion immediately South of the trunks. The
work was vigorously prosecuted, but just prior to the
excessive rains in June following, one of these trunks
blew out. The force under the direction of the Dry
Culture Inspector was employed repairing the dam
age when the rains set in, which continued for more
than a week, almost without cessation. The Spring
field Canal became so charged with water, that the
embankments North of the Central Rail Road were
broken in several places, and the lands of the Rail
road, East of the Canal, flooded. The portion of the
Springfield low lands, between the Oge'echee Canal
and Gwinnett Street, was also overflowed. It became
necessary to cut an embankment, which had been
temporarily thrown across the Springfield Canal, just
above the trunks, which were being repaired, to enaable this water to escape ; but so great was the vol
ume from the uncleared swamps above the back-dam,
and owing to the freshet in the river, the amount dis
charged between tides was so small, that some time
elapsed before the water could be gotten off the lands.
As soon as possible work on the trunks was re
sumed. After mature consideration, it was deter
mined to remove and place them higher up the Canal,
a distance of eighty or ninety yards, where a better
bed could be obtained. This was done. The site
previously occupied by the trunks is now opened to a
width of forty feet, and a substantial bridge has been
constructed across the Canal at this point. The work
of widening the Canal was now resumed, and the ser
vices of the chain-gang having been obtained, the cut
was increased to an average width of sixty feet, to the
point of junction with the old Canal, and from thence
to Central Rail Road, to forty feet in width. The em
bankments have been raised to a point sufficient to
protect the adjoining lands, and are of the most sub
stantial character. The portion lying between the
Central Rail Road and the Savannah and Ogeechee
MAYOR'S ANNUAL REPORT. 47
Canal remains to be widened and deepened. The
bridge on the Louisville road, crossing the Canal, is
much too narrow, and having been seriously injured
in 1871, at the time of the breaking of the Timber
Basins, should be, as soon as practicable, rebuilt.
SPRINGFIELD SEWER.
This Sewer, constructed in 1859-60, of wood, con
tinues almost the only means of draining the one hun
dred and fifty acres of low land of the Springfield
Plantation, and the low lands belonging to the Cen
tral Rail Road, East of the Springfield Canal. Six
teen years have elapsed since it was constructed. The
braces and siding for a considerable portion of its
length have been stolen, and used for kindling, and
what is left is fast falling to decay. I would respectful
ly urge the rebuilding of the Sewer, with an increased
width, of say two feet, and with brick sides, say two
feet in height. From the top of the side walls, the
earth to be sloped back with a grade of one and
one-half to one. Built in this wav, it would be per
manent, and require but little labor to keep it clean.
No closet sewage passes through this Sewer.
EASTERN LOW-LANDS.
The level of the Eastern Wharves, East of Lamar's
Creek, being in many places below the level of the
highest spring-tides, and the lands lying between the
Eastern slope of the City and the Bilbo Canal being
exposed to inundation whenever they occur, it was
decided to construct an embankment on the Northern
side of the extension of St, Julian Street, from La
mar's Creek to the Bilbo Canal, for their protection
from overflow from the river. This work was com
pleted early in the spring.
BILBO CANAL.
This Canal received the usual spring working in
April, and shortly afterward the plan of flushing it
with tide water was resorted to by leaving open the
48 MAYOR'S ANNUAL REPORT.
gates for the admission of the tide. It was found,
however, to be unsafe, as the inflow could not be
checked without danger to the gates until the whole
tide had run in. In order to regulate the amount of
water admitted, two iron paddle gates have been
placed in the floodgates, near the bottom, which can
be opened and closed at any stage of the tide.
The sides of the upper portion of the Canal, near
the mouth of the Bolton Sewer, have been for several
years protected with sheet piling and timber. This
protection being in a decayed condition, and in some
places having fallen in, retaining walls of brick on a
plank floor have been built for a distance of one hun
dred and twenty feet. It is very desirable that this
arrangement should be continued to the point where
the direction of the Canal is in a straight line, or
about four hundred feet further. The difference in
cost between the wood and brick is trifling, compared
with the neat and durable character of the latter.
Very respectfully,
JOHN B. HOGG,
City Surveyor.

REPORT OF CHIEF ENGINEER.
SAVANNAH FIRE DEPARTMENT.
OFFICE OF CHIEF ENGINEER, )
SAVANNAH, GA., December 31, 1876. )
To the Honorable Mayor and Aldermen
of the City of Savannah :
GENTLEMEN :In compliance with the Ordinances
of the City, I have the honor to submit my Report of
the Fire Department for the year ending December
31, 1876.
The Department consists of one hundred and forly
seven, including officers and men, divided as follows :
Chief Engineer,
Assistant Chief Engineer,
Three Steam Engine Companies,
One Hook and Ladder Company,
Two Hose Companies, which only act as aux
iliaries to the regular force.
The Apparatus consists of
Four Steam Engines,
One Hook and Ladder Truck,
Three Hose Reels,
Two Hose Carriages.
All of which are in good order. Three of the En
gines are always ready for duty ; the fourth is held
in reserve to take the place of either of the others
should they require repairs; or, if needed, can be
placed on duty at any time. The work of keeping
the apparatus in good condition has been done chiefly
by the Engineers and men of the Department, by
which means a heavy item of expense has been saved.
MAYOR'S ANNUAL REPORT. 51
In addition to the apparatus before mentioned, we
have 4,600 feet of Hose, distributed as follows, viz.:
Steamer No.1 700feet.
Steamer No. 2 - - - - 700 feet.
Steamer No. 3 -------- - 700 feet.
Hose Company No. 1 (Auxiliary) - - - 500 feet.
Hose Company No. 2 (Auxiliary) - - - 500 feet.
In reserve at Fireman's Hall ----- 1,500 feet.
Included in the foregoing is 1,000 feet leather hose,
purchased in October, which was greatly needed to
replace the rubber hose, which is rapidly wearing out.
WATER SUPPLY.
The water supply generally throughout the City is
ample, but in places where four-inch pipes are laid,
there is an insufficiency for more than one Engine to
work at a time. I earnestly recommend that no more
pipes of a calibre less than six inches be laid down,
and eight inches would be far more conducive to
safety. West of West Broad Street, should a large
fire occur, the supply would be inadequate.
FIRE ALARM TELEGRAPH.
The Fire Alarm Telegraph is frequently out of
order, and needs general overhauling. For details, I
respectfully refer to the Report of the Superinten
dent accompanying. v
NEW ALARM BELL.
The new alarm bell, which has been placed in the
Tower, erected for it at the Police Barracks, within
the past year, is not yet in a conaition to be used to
advantage. It requires a roof and deck. I respect
fully recommend that these be supplied without de
lay, as it is important that alarms of fire should be
more general to insure the prompt attendance of
firemen.
SUPPLIES.
I still give my personal attention to the purchase of
all supplies for the Department, and nothing is
bought that is not imperatively needed.
52 MAYOR'S ANNUAL REPORT.
EXPENSES.
For the expenses of the Department, schedule of
property, number of fires, etc., I respectfully refer to
the report of the Secretary, herewith appended.
I beg respectfully to protest against the building of
sheds on wharves, contiguous to large buildings
without fire-proof shutters to doors and windows. At
the fire in August last, in which the Kelly Building
was consumed, there was a shed fully three hundred
feet in lengthabout twenty feet in the rear of that
buildingin which and the adjoining building were
about two hundred windows, most of them open, per
mitting free circulation of air. It was impossible for
the firemen to stand between the shed and build
ings, and, in retreating to a different position, much
valuable time w
Tas lost. The heat was intensified
from burning rosin, hay, etc., stored under the shed.
While my utmost exertions will ever be made to
wards the prompt extinguishment of fires, I regard
the protection of the lives of my men of far greater
moment.
We have had many fires during the past year, but
our city has not been called on to mourn the loss of a
single life. This calamity, which has so frightfully
plunged some of our sister cities in sorrow and dis
tress, has been mercifully spared us.
WORKING OF THE DEPARTMENT.
The working of the Department has fully met all
reasonable expectations, and for the three months du
ring which our city was so terribly scourged, every
call was promptly responded to ; and, though often
our numbers were few, depleted by sickness to less
than twenty, we still managed to meet every emer
gency, but the strain was very great, for no one who
has not tried it can form any idea of the strength and
endurance it requires to hold a pipe with a water
pressure of 120 pounds.
MAYOR'S ANNUAL REPORT. 53
To those of my officers and men, who stood by me
in those dark hours, I return my sincerest thanks.
The pestilence did not pass over us lightly ; eleven of
our little band have passed away ! All honor to
them ! They fell at the post of duty !
CONCLUSION.
In conclusion, I beg respectfully to return my
thanks to His Honor the Mayor and the Committee on
Fire Department for many courtesies extended, and
to the officers and men of the Police Department for
valuable assistance rendered.
I have the honor to be,
Very respectfully,
Your obedient servant,

REPORT OF SUPERINTENDENT OF THE FIRE
ALARM TELEGRAPH.
SAVANNAH, GA., January 1, 1877.
F. BLAIR, ESQ.,
Chief Engineer:
DEAR SIR :In accordance with instructions, I here
by report the condition of the fire alarm wires in the
city. They need general repairs throughout the
city. Many poles have decayed, and will have to be
replaced by new ones. The trees in many places need
trimming, as they materially interfere with the well
working of the lines.
I have put in during the year several new poles,
and kept the lines in working order as well as possi
ble, considering the limited time I have to attend to
it; it needs some one's constant supervision to pre
vent failures in working.
I would respectfully recommend a Calland battery
in place of one now in use. It can be run with less
cost, and is of more strength and uniformity.
Respectfully yours,
J. W. JONES,
Superintendent S. F. A. T.

REPORT OF HEALTH OFFICER.
OFFICE HEALTH OFFICER.
SAVANNAH, January 1, 1877.
HON. E. C. ANDERSON,
Mayor of the City of Savannah :
SIR :I have the honor to submit to you the follow
ing Report for official year ending December 31,
1876. In consequence of the appointment of an "In
vestigating Committee," of which Hon John Screven
is Chairman, whose duty it is fully to investigate into
the cause or causes which produced the yellow fever
epidemic, that devastated our city during the past
summer, and, as the result of such labor will be
placed before the public, I deem it unnecessary to en
ter into any narrative concerning this, the most fatal
epidemic, which has visited our city since the year
1820. In justice to myself, I deem it proper to cor
rect erroneous statements formed therefrom :
1st. I assert that no Spaiiish vessel arrived at Sa
vannah, from quarantine ground, having had sick
ness of any kind on board, until after yellow fever
cases had occurred in the city.
2nd I also affirm that the report which was circu
lated, stating that Spanish sailors escaped from a ves
sel while in quarantine and came to the city, is with
out foundation. Quarantine regulations were as rig
idly enforced at this port, during the past season, as
they have ever been in previous years.
In my official report, made for the year ending De
cember 31, 1875, four cases of small pox were reported
as remaining at the Pest House. I regret to say that
64 MAYOR'S ANNUAL REPORT.
with all the promptness that I could use in removing
cases from the city, and with strictness of isolation
and quarantining of cases remaining (with my knowl
edge), within the city limits, followed up with fumi
gation, whitewashing and cleaning of houses, it has
been beyond my power to eradicate the disease ; not
for a single day, since my last report, has the small
pox Hospital been clear of patients.
The antipathy to removal, and fear of the loss of
employment, should citizens employing servants find
out that a small pox case is under the same roof with
their employee, tend to concealment, and consequent
ly the keeping up of the disease. Many cases have
died within the city and immediate surroundings, du
ring the last year, with small pox, the existence of
the disease being brought to my notice only by the
necessity of a burial certificate. This loathsome dis
ease is controllable, could the cases be isolated, as
shown by the very seldom occurrence of cases in
houses where the removal of the first case has been
prompt, and followed up with fumigation, etc., and in
these few instances I am satisfied that incubation had
already set in prior to fumigation and cleaning of
premises.
It is a well known fact that a large portion of the
people entertain violent prejudice against vaccination,
to such an extent that they will not avail themselves
or allow their families to receive this protection, even
when it is offered gratuitously, as was done by City
Council, at my suggestion, during the past season. I
feel confident that the vaccination of the pupils of the
Public Colored Schools did much to hold the disease
in check, and, after this, Dr. T. B. Chisholm was em
ployed by Council to vaccinate, free of charge, all
persons who would call at his office. He also visited
infected localities, under my instructions, and vac
cinated all unprotected parties who could be prevailed
upon to accept it. By this means, a large number,
MAYOR'S ANNUAL REPORT. 65
principally negroes, became protected, and unques
tionably the outlay was well placed ; but the number
who declined or did not avail themselves of this sani
tary and humanitarian offer of the city, is alarmingly
great Dr. Chisholm was again employed by Coun
cil, in the month of October last, to assist me. He
has unquestionably discharged his duty with com
mendable zeal.
Vaccination is the only protection against, and
means by which we can expect to break up the dis
ease. Although this fact is so well known, it is as
tonishing and lamentable to find so large a portion of
our community, a great many among intelligent class
es, who are unprotected by this simple and effectual
safeguard.
In closing this report, upon a subject of such vital
importance to our community, I would most respect
fully bring to the consideration of the City Council,
who will within a few days assume the reins of gov
ernment, the following points for consideration :
1st. The procurement of another site for a small
pox Hospital, as the one now used is located too far
from the city, and upon the most public road leading
thereform. It is also far from safe to pass the ambu
lance when conveying patients to the hospital.
2nd. That hospital buildings, comfortable in every
respect, should be erected and so arranged that private
patients might avail themselves of isolation and all
comforts that they might desire.
3d. That all applicants for admission into Public
Schools be required to produce a physician's certifi
cate that he or she has been successfully vaccinated,
and that admission into schools be refused until such
certificate is presented.
4th. That revaccination be advised, as the neces
sity for the same is taught by experience.
66 MAYOR'S ANNUAL REPORT.
5th. That City Council seek by legislation to make
vaccination compulsory, or as near so as the laws of
the State will allow.
6th. That our citizens be advised and urged to
adopt the rule of not employing any servant, unless
he or she is vaccinated, or will at once submit to the
operation.
I now submit the following tabulated report for the
year :

MORTUARY REPORT.
SAVANNAH, January 20, 1877.
HON. EDWARD C. ANDERSON,
Mayor of the City of Savannah :
SIR :I herewith respectfully submit to you. a sta
tistical Mortuary Report, of the city of Savannah, for
the official year ending December 31st, 1876, compiled
from the records, on file in your office, as furnished
by the Sextons of the different Cemeteries.
As compared with eighteen previous years, this re
port exhibits a large increase in the mortality of the
entire population, due principally to the sudden out
break of an epidemic of yellow fever, on the 21st of
August, and its prevalence until the 14th of Novem
ber. Inasmuch as it is desirable that a correct and
detailed record of that lamentable scourge should be
presented to the public, I have prepared, with much
carefulness, the tabulated statements, accompanying
the usual Annual Mortuary Report, which statements,
I conceive to be as accurate as can be arranged, from
the data which have been placed at my disposal.
Referring to your own report, published in the
Morning News of the 8th of January, the first death,
recorded from yellow fever, occurred August 21st, on
Wright street, a short cul de sac, about fifty yards
long, the culmination of Bryan street, in the north
eastern part of the city, viz.: James P. Cleary. The
second occurred in the same street and same locality,
August 22nd. viz.: Joseph Lynch. The third and
fourth, August 26th, same locality, viz.: John Lynch
and Mrs. John Lynch. The fifth occurred, August
26th, on East Broad street, two doors north of Brough-
MAYOR'S ANNUAL REPORT. 71
ton, viz.: Michael Delaney. The sixth took place
August 27th, on Reynolds street, next to Gas House,
in the immediate vicinity of Wright street, viz.: Mary
Ann Smye. The seventh August 27th, in Broughton
street, three doors west of Reynolds, viz.: Mary
Kehoe. The eighth, August 27th, on East Boundary
street, north end, near Wright street, viz.: Catherine
Kehoe. The ninth, August 27tli, corner of Randolph
and President streets, viz : Frederick Lawson.
On the 28th of August there are five deaths record
ed, from yellow fever, one which took place on Stone
street, in the Southwestern section of the city, viz.:
Mrs. Mary E. Malcomes ; one on State street, between
Whitaker and Barnard, Edward L. Drummond, and
the remaining three in the Northeastern part of the city.
On the 29th of August three deaths occurred from
yellow fever. One on Indian lane, W. M. Thomp
son, the other two not specified.
After this time, the disease spread rapidly, and was
not confined to any locality. The highest number of
deaths in the city in any one day was thirty-three
(33), on the 20th of September. The highest number
of deaths from all causes, forty-two (42), on the 23d
of September. These occurred during the fifth week
of the epidemic, embracing the period between the
18th and 24th of September, during which week there
are reported (229) two hundred and twenty-nine
deaths from all causes.
From the 21st of August until the 14th of Novem
ber, inclusive, a period of eighty seven (87) days, the
total mortality from all causes, whites and colored,
reached (1,351) thirteen hundred and fifty-one, this
number being subdivided as follows, viz.: Whites,
yellow fever, (771) seven hundred and seventy-one;
colored, yellow fever, (125) one hundred and twentylive. Total yellow fever, (896) eight hundred and nine
ty-six. Whites, other diseases, (160) one hundred
and sixty ; colored, other diseases, (295) two hundred
and ninety-five; total (455) four hundred and fifty-five.
72 MAYOR'S ANNUAL REPORT.
A tabulated statement of deaths, reported other
than yellow fever, during the prevalence of the epi
demic, is also submitted to you. It is presumably
correct to say, that a large proportion of the deaths,
reported in this latter mentioned category, were gen
uine cases of yellow fever, such as convulsions, gas
tritis, congestive fever, fever undefined, etc., and the
intelligent reader will be enabled to deduce an ap
proximate estimate of the influences of the epidemic,
from the nomenclature of the diseases thus furnished.
The above inference is corroborated by a comparison
with the usual death rate of preceding years, during
the same period, when there has not been any epi
demic of yellow fever prevailing, and the statement,
that in some instances, there were no physicians in
attendance, who would have given certified returns of
such deaths. In the period embraced between the 21st
of August and the 14th of November, the epidemic
being declared by the physicians at an end on the lat
ter date, there were forty (40) interments of yellow
fever in the several cemeteries, of persons who were
brought dead to the city from different points, viz.:
Isle of Hope, Whitesville, Thunderbolt, etc. After
the 14th of November seven (7) deaths, from yellow
fever, occurred in the city among the whites, and two
(2) among the colored, and four white persons were
brought dead to the city for interment. The last re
corded death from yellow fever in the city occurred
December 5th. The census of the city, taken by your
direction, in the month of October, exhibits the popu
lation at that time, as follows :
MALES, FEMALES, TOTAL.
Whites 3,605 3,748 7,353
Colored 5,058 6,556 11,614
8,663 10,304 18,967
To the above figures should be added those who
diedduring the epidemic, up to the time that the cen-
MAYOR'S ANNUAL REPORT. 73
sus was taken, in order that a correct estimate of the
mortality, during the epidemic, may be attained. The
following statement shows the percentage of deaths
to population, from j'ellow fever, to have been

Whites 12.44 6.46 9.54
Colored ------ 1.52 .70 1.06
Percentage of deaths from all causes during the
epidemic : Whites 11.53, colored 3.58.
Any opinion as to the origin of the epidemic, its
causes, etc., would involve a more elaborate disserta
tion than would be pertinent to, or consistent with its
statistical history, and I forbfear intruding upon the
public, in this report, any individual views which I en
tertain, reserving that privilege for the columns of the
medical gazettes, where the discussion of the subject
more properly belongs. The mortuary record, however,
clearly shows that the fatality of the disease first ex
pended itself, and that the epidemic, as such, was
first recognized by the medical profession in the
Northeastern portion of the city. It affords me pleas
ure to affirm, from my own personal knowledge at the
time, that the Health Officer, Dr. J. T. McFarland,
recognized the first death which occarred, and, with
commendable promptness, exercised every sanitary
precaution against the spread of the disease, disin
fecting the surrounding locality for several blocks
distant, with lime and carbolic acid. This process
was continued uninterruptedly under the direction of
the Chairman of the Street and Lane Committee of
Council, until the whole city wasthus treated. It is but
due to the Health Officer, also, to state that the sys
tem of quarantine, enforced under his direction, du
ring the past summer, was as rigidly observed as has
been the custom for several years past, the quaran
tine regulations themselves being defective upon our
entire Southern coast.
74 MAYOR'S ANNUAL REPORT.
In the preparation of the usual annual mortuary
reports, my attention has been directed frequently to
the fact that large numbers of interments take place
annually, without any physician having been in at
tendance. This occurs to a much greater extent
among the colored, than among the white population,
either from inability to remunerate, or disinclination
to ask, skilled services. Certificates of such deaths
are procured from the Mayor's Office, the applicant
furnishing the data for the record, except in those
cases presumed to occur within the jurisdiction of
the Coroner. It is respectfully suggested that the
municipal authorities adopt such legislation as will
secure a more accurate record of the causes of deaths
taking place where there has not been a physician in
attendance. With a view to that end, it would be
proper that all applications for certificates of burial
of such cases should be procured from the Health
Officer, whose duty should be to ascertain, as far as
possible, all the facts connected with each application,
and certifying thereto accordingly. Such a system
would be more perfect than the one now employed, and
would lessen the temptation to the commission of such
crimes as infanticide, inhuman neglect, etc. In order
that this subject should receive that consideration
which its importance justifies, all the facts connected
with the present system have been placed before the
Georgia Medical Society, and I beg leave herewith to
present the action of that Association, as embodied
in the following resolutions :
"liesolried. That it is the sense of this Society that a
more perfect record of deaths, and the causes of
death, and other facts connected therewith, should be
kept regularly on file at the office of the Mayor, and
that to obtain such record, it should be required of
the Sexton of each Cemetery to demand, with each
application for burial made to him, a certificate of
the form, provided by the municipal authorities,
properly and fully filled out, and duly signed by a
MAYOR'S ANNUAL REPORT. 75
physician, the Coroner, or the Health Officer, as a
competent witness, a copy of which form is herewith
submitted.
"Resolved, That certificates of the death of those
cases, where there has not been a physician in at
tendance, and which do not come within the jurisdic
tion of the Coroner, should be procured from the
Health Officer, who should be required in every in
stance to inspect the body, to exfimine into all the
facts bearing upon each application for burial, and
certify thereto accordingly."
The prevalence of small pox, more or less, during
the entire year, principally among the colored popu
lation, materially increased the usual annual death
rate of the city. I am informed by the Health Officer,
that of a total of (373) three hundred and seventythree cases, taken to the small pox Hospital from
January 1st to December 31st, (140) one hundred and
forty persons, who were removed from the city, died
of that disease, and (14) fourteen from the County of
Chatham, outside the corporate limits of the city.
Upon the whole, the mortality of the year 1876,
brought about in consequence of a combination of
causes, which have been unprecedented, unfavorably
interrupts the long enjoyed reputation for salubrity,
which the city has maintained. The record of the
past has been, however, as I trust that of the future
will be, such as to establish that confidence in the
healthfulhess of Savannah, to which the city is justly
entitled, and which it will again demonstrate.
Respectfully submitted,
W. DUNCAN, M. D.
Resolved, That the Georgia Medical Society fully endorses,
with a vote of thanks, the statistical report of Dr. William
Duncan, upon the late epidemic, to the city authorities.
W. H. ELLIOTT, M. D.,
President.
