Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Message of Gov. J. Proctor Knott to the General Assembly of Kentucky: At the Regular Session, Dec. 30, 1885
Should these fears be realized, the extent of the evil which may be apprehended is beyond calculation, as the lengthy incubation of the distemper favors its introduction and transportation without detection, and the virus to which it owes its origin may be conveyed long dis tances in human clothing, boats, cars, hay, and other things with which it comes in contact, and which may become the ready and fruitful means of its speedy and extensive diffusion. The matter is, therefore, well worthy of your serious consideration, as our statutes are entirely insuffi cient for such an emergency.
