In 1901, Gee Hop placed an advertisement that, "Gee Hop, Cabinet Maker, of James street, desires to notify to his friends and the public generally that there is no foundation for the rumour that the Bubonic Plague has broken out in his workshops. A malicious rumour appears to have been circulated, and, upon the visit of the Doctors, was found to be absolutely without truth." (West Australian, 24 April 1901, p.1 )
