Death of Brother Davis

Word from Mrs. O. E. Davis says she planned on leaving Georgetown, British Guiana, about October 15. Later information reveals the fact that Brother Davis did not meet his death by poisoning, as was first reported, but that he died of blackwater fever, after several days of suffering, having contracted the fatal disease on his journey into the interior. This was learned from his own diary when it reached his wife at Georgetown. He was apparently tenderly cared for by the Indians.
