Summary
"From 1893 until 1905 the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania required local municipalities to record vital statistics such as births, deaths, and cases of infectious disease. The record for the community of Columbia, Lancaster County, Pa., survives in the county archives and is a valuable record of one community's struggle to contain diseases that are seldom encountered today: smallpox, scarlet fever, typhoid fever, diphtheria, and tuberculosis. Within these pages, one can learn about the diseases and the treatments available in that time period and meet the physicians and community leaders who were in the front lines of the sturggle."

Summary
The unfortunate Susanna Cox gained notoriety for killing her illegitimate infant son. The fatal episode led to her hanging in Reading, Pennsylvania, in 1809, the last public execution of a woman in the commonwealth. But was Susanna really the culprit? The legend of her fate, repeated in Pennsylvania German broadsides by the generations that followed, suggests she herself was a victim. Now, in this first full-length investigation into the tragedy, new evidence reveals some startling facts about how indifference, an undeveloped court system, and the inexact science of nineteenth-century forensics combined to determine Susanna's tragic fate. A full look at how Susanna's "sad song" became romanticized through broadside ballads follows, complete with illustrations.
