disease spread rapidly. the local author
titles not paying any attention to 1t till
half the inhabitants had died and the
remainder were unable to bury the vic.
tins. Then. when the epidemic had
assumed serious dimensions, energetic
measures were taken for preventing It's
spreading. and strict guarantees were
established. firstly in towns and villages,
shutting of streets where the plague
rsigned FROM the rest Of the place, and
secondly by surrounding the villages
with troops, so that nobody was allowed
10 pass in or out. The panic in Russia

station in life have petitionsd for an
entire cessation OF all intercourse, even
postal communications, between the rest

are addressed. and some people sven re-
