- (continued from previous page)was the first fire ever before in Virginia but there as been a good many since that.
- There was an epidemic out about one hundred years ago. It swept many people of the face of the earth. There was a family in Murmod by the name of Cullens. The epidemic came and it swept one of the family. The epidemic continued and four more of the family were carried away. When the first death occurred they built a tent outside a bit from the house. They waked the first corps and they waked the other four there also.
