Address to the Inhabitants of Rugby about the Cholera Morbus, by Arnold 67040 [Author: Thomas Arnold] [Link: http://www.gutenberg.org/6/7/0/4/67040 ] [Files: 67040-0.txt; 67040-h.htm] For those wishing to know: in 1831 cholera was spreading in England and causing panic, as they didn't know how it spread, how to stop it, and many of those getting it were dead within 48 hours. At Rugby School, the headmaster, Thomas Arnold, wrote what little he knew to the townsfolk as together they prepared for the worst. All the best, David, Damp England
