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
