Louisa County (Va.) Judgment, Lewis Yancey, surviving partner vs. Louisa County, 1906 May, pertains to a smallpox outbreak of Dec. 1902-Apr. 1903, during which a local dry goods business, Yancey Brothers, served as a quarantine hospital and all goods/wares were ordered destroyed afterward. Legal issue in question was whether the county was liable to Yancey for goods used and/or destroyed during the four-month outbreak, and whether all information was correctly provided to the jury. Other issues in question relate to proper use of authority and eminent domain vs. police power. Includes printed proceedings as the county appealed, and later was heard by the Virginia Supreme Court of Appeals as Louisa County v. Yancey's Trustee et al. Jan 21, 1909. Documents reference the actions of Dr. P.P. May and the service of colored nurse "Davy" David Woofolk for 94 days between Dec 29, 1902-Apr 5, 1903.
