The following painfully touching narrative may be
taken as an illustration of the dreadful traits of cholera
visitation. On Saturday, about mid-day, David Daniels,
a mechanic, residing in one of some cottages in the Blue
Anchor•road, Bermondsey, was brought into Guy's Hos-
petal suffering from Asiatic cholera. On the previous day
his wife and three children had succumbed to the disease,
and on Saturday morning be was in apparent health
arrang• g with an undertaker in the neighbourhood for
their burial. lie was, however, shortly after attacked, and
brought to the cholera ward of the bovital, where he
reed perfectly sensible, expremiag his fine convic-
tion that he should not recover, and his perfect resignation,
inasmuch as he had nothing to live for now he had lost
all those be held most dear on earth. About six o'clock
in the evening he died. He was about 31 years of age,
and his wife 28. The latter was exceedingly handsome.
The relations of the wife bearing that she and her little
ones were attacked by cholera refused to visit her or
attend upon her at all, and some of them, with whom one
of the children was, sent it back to its parents' house.
The body of Daniels was sent back to his house on Satur-
day evening, and on Sunday father, mother, and three
children were all interred together in the same grave, in
the district burying-ground belonging to Bermondsey. A
sight so novel and at the same time so melancholy at-
tracted, as may well be imagined, a large crowd of spec-
tators.
On Sunday night an old woman applied for, and
obtained, admission into- the female casual ward of the
Marylebone Workhouse under the name of Catherine
Young, and she said she was the wife of a master tailor at
Sheffield. After the usual bath she was put to bed, and
at 10 o'clock she was seised with diarrhma, followed by ,
violent vomiting. The master had her at once removed to
the workhouse infirmary, where she was immediately
attended to, but died at &o'clock yesterday morning from
Asiatic cholera. This is the only cam which has occurred
in the parish this year. Since the outbreak in April last
the 1,700 inmates of the Marylebone Workhouse have been
put upon an increased diet.
We learn from a telegram that two cases of cholera
have taken place at Plymouth in a home for fallen women.
The matron died yesterday. The opening of a choked
drain on the is believed by the medical men to
have caused e outbreak.
