The Killer That Stalked New York Page #7

Synopsis: Sheila Bennett returns to New York from Cuba, carrying $40,000 worth of smuggled diamonds...and smallpox, which could start a devastating epidemic in the unprotected city. Treasury agent Johnson loses her but keeps doggedly on the trail; while Public Health doctor Wood searches in vain for the unknown person spreading the deadly disease far and wide. Meanwhile, the increasingly ill Sheila is only concerned with her faithless husband Matt, who plans to abscond with the diamonds...

All those others you touched.

Give me your hand, Sheila.

All right, all right. Break it up, break it up.

It's all over. It's all over.

Go on home. Come on, go on. Go on home.

Read about it in the papers tomorrow.

And so, on a ledge

five stories above a street.

the city's terror came to an end.

Before Sheila passed on

in a last blinding burst of fever,

she found the strength to tell the doctors

what they had to know.

And smallpox. the ancient killer,

was forced back into the Middle Ages

from whence it had sprung.

There were the dead.

but eight million lived on.
