the cholera epidemic now raging in

those under observation, gathered to
the number of several thousand to lib
crate their relatives and friends. The
hospital was stormed and the building
threatened with incendiary destruc-

procession through the town. The
people acclaimed the cholera victims
and shouted imprecations against the
