Bubonic Plague, 800 Ii. C.

The earliest authentic record of bu-
bonic plague has hitherto been accept
ed, says Nature, dated 800 B. C..
Drs. f. Tidswell and j. A. Dick have,
however, recently brought evidence
before the Royal Society of New South
Wales to show that the epidemic Of
1144 E. c., described in the first book
of Samuel chapters to 100, was the
bubonic plague. After the Philistines
had captured the Ark Of the Covenant
and taken it to Ashdod, severe illness
broke out among the people. 1.-THE
hand Of the Lord was heavy upon them
of AshdOd, and He destroyed them and
smote them with emOrods." The word
"emorod" has usually been taken to
mean hemOrrhOids, but in the revised
version of the Old Testament it is
stated to mean tumOr or plague boil.
The epidemic in Philistia occurred at
the time of the regular plague season,
and mice are mentioned in connection
with it, which furnishes additional
evidence that the epidemic was plague,
for a connection between the death Of
rats and plague at Bombay and else
where has been clearly established.-
