Delicate women and aged and in-

All are supperless, and this comes after three
days Of insufficient food. dread of fire, misery
OF seasickness and the dreadful unosr-
Jainty as to our fate. Had the cholera
been among US 1t must have broken
out but only tonight the quarantine physician
on board the Cepheus pledged his word to the
savage mob that is OBTAINING US here that there
have been no symptoms Of cholera amongst US
during all the time we have besn
under his observation. The breaking
hunger and fear are doing their work and the
condition Of the weak and infrm Is reaching the
limit OF endurance. For Gods sake, release us
and let us go to our homes. We will there put
ourselves under any supervision you may direct.
Take account Of our peculiar conditions and act
at once or the authorities of the Empire state
will be responsible for the many deaths from
exhaustion.
