A little child stood by in open-mouthed admiration, that became ecstasy when I joined in with "The Babies on our Block."

The storekeeper, knowing that music hath charms to soothe the breast of even a typhus-fever patient, had thrown in a dozen boxes as his own gift.
"Louis said you couldn't. His wife's got the typhus-fever, and he's up nights watching with her won't let anybody else. You can't get him."

A disease of hogs that may be termed typhus-fever sometimes affects a large number of the hogs in the herd.
"You must come to the hospital immediately, sir; the man with the typhus-fever you saw him yesterday he's dying; he says he must see you that he has something important to confess. I'm to go for a magistrate as well." "Ah!" said Father Banks, "you need go no further, Alderman Balch is here he is quite competent to receive his depositions."
