Bishop White never became sick with Yellow Fever. Why?
Bishop White had a bathroom inside his house. People called this
room the "necessary.” Most homes had necessaries outside. Servants
went behind the Bishop’s house and emptied the privies (toilets) outside
into Dock Creek. Because of pollution, Dock Creek probably had a lot
of mosquitoes. Mosquitoes make people sick from Yellow Fever. Yellow
Fever killed thousands of Philadelphians in 1793 and 1797. Later, city
workers filled in Dock Creek.
