E-mail from Corrine Brauck, July 1, 2002: "Arsenic was used in a compound called Paris Green developed around 1775 by Carl Scheele, which was used as a pigment in paints, wallpaper and fabrics. Throughout the 1800s, there were reports of people becoming ill from living in houses decorated with the poisonous wallpaper, however, Paris Green was not recognized as a health hazard until the end of the century. " in the 1890's, medical authorities in Italy were concerned about the unexplained deaths of over a thousand children, A chemist , E. Gosio was consulted. Gosin did not examine the children, but the rooms where the deaths occurred. He discovered the deaths had two common factors: Paris Green wallpaper in the rooms and a presence of mildew. The children being shorter and playing on the floor, inhaled the heavy arsine, the byproduct of arsenic and dampness. The removal of Paris Green from wallpaper prevented further deaths. Paris Green was readily available in rat poison in the era also."

According to the letter from Rob A. Little, September 15, 1999, 211 Rondons died of tuberculosis. The surname was originally spelled Rondini. Francis Rondon was from Pisa, Italy. He started out as a sausage maker and "huckster" in Kingston. He and Margaret bought the hotel and general store in Joyceville, Ontario in the late 1870's. It was still a stage coach stop for the non-railroad passengers. By the early 1880's, Francis and at least two daughters, Mary Anne and Margaret were suffering from TB. Mary Elizabeth Christmas was sent to Joyceville to live with the Rondons and help care for the children while Margaret tended the infirm. After Francis died, Margaret sold the hotel and store and post office and bought near Barriefield just outside of Kingston. With the exception of a few household items left to her daughters, the farm and all the other possessions were willed to the Sisters at the Hotel Dieu Hospital when Margaret died.
