Excerpt from Southern Medical Journal, Vol. 8: March, 1915 The river flows normally between fairly deep banks, say 4 to, 8 feet below them, with occasionally a false bank on the sides next the flats. Into the river empty creeks, branches and ravines. When they come through a flat, or skirting between a flat and a hill, there are generally marshes on its banks, or on one bank, as it crosses the flat. With such a valley, there are places physic ally suitable for breeding anopheles normally existing on every river bottom, especially at the bases of the surrounding hills, and in gen eral such places do breed anopheles.
