rif. 26909Lambeth 7 July 1832. Four pages folio bifolium tipped onto card minor damage not affecting text crude repair with sellotape on 'spine' aged fair condition. A. The 'Petition' two pages folio in a tidy handwriting commencing: "We the undersigned regret to have occasion to trouble your Lordship but under the present alarming apprehension of that dreadful disease of Cholera we intreat your Lordships assistance in the removal of a monstrous nuisance in our immediate neighbourhood. The dust yard of Messrs Sinott situate in Belvedere Road Lambeth is the receptacle for the refuse of the vegetables from Covent Garden market where it is as well as much other very offensive matter suffered to remain till far advanced in decomposition long thought the source of cholera the effluvia from which especially during the present warm weather is almost unbearable and we fear unless abated will materially endanger the lives of many in our populous neighbourhood ." They ask for his Lordship's interference to deal with a longstanding problem. Signed by Thomas Langton Samuel Cross John Barnard John Chas Stahlschmidt and ten others. B. Final page of the bifolium copy of letter presumably sent to Sinnottsalso dated 7 July 1832 tipped on to card with loss of a letter or two initialled discussing the source of effluvia affecting the lives of people a "crowded population" and its connection to cholera. See Image. Notes: a. "Lord Melbourne William Lamb 2nd Viscount Melbourne was heavily involved in the government's response to the first major cholera epidemic in Britain during his time as Home Secretary in the early 1830s" AI; b. "The 1832 Cholera Outbreak in LambethConditions: Lambeth situated along the Thames was a hub of industry and a magnet for poor migrant workers living in cramped filthy conditions with no proper sewerage systems.Water Supply: Residents including those in Lambeth drank directly from the heavily contaminated Thames accelerating the spread of the disease.Impact: By February 1832 cases were reported in London with Lambeth and Southwark among the early affected areas. By the end of 1832 the epidemic had killed over 32000 people across Britain."Miasma" Theory: At the time officials like Edwin Chadwick and the Central Board of Health believed cholera was caused by "miasma"—poisonous air arising from decomposing matter."

1850rif. BK0017Sacramento City California 1850. Autograph letter signed "Sam'l Locke" to his wife in Belfast Maine. 6 pp. Stampless folded letter with clear circular "SACRAMENTO CITY / CAL." postmark and "40" rate handstamp; manuscript notation recording receipt in Maine on December 19 1850. Light soiling; very good. A bleak California Gold Rush letter written during the 1850 Sacramento cholera epidemic by Samuel Locke a Maine emigrant suffering from prolonged fever and unable to regain his strength. Surrounded by sickness failed mining ventures violent crime and men too poor or ill to return home Locke plans to seek recovery in the Sandwich Islands while relying upon his religious faith for consolation. Locke had been ill since August and was now so weak that ordinary work exhausted him: "My limbs or legs are very weak short breath and no appetite at all. I have no desire to eat anything not one thing I can think of. I have no strength to go into any business or to do any. I do a few little chores round or about the store occasionally but to sweep the store it beats me all out . O how I long to get out of this place. Can't get any strength don't know as I can anywhere but I long to try." Friends advised him to spend the winter in the Sandwich Islands. He expected to travel first to San Francisco and then make the fifteen- to twenty-day passage to Hawaii though he feared that continued illness might leave him unable either to support himself there or return to Maine. He states that he will "trust in providence yes trust in God who I feel is my only refuge". Locke gives a grim account of California's climate and the spread of cholera through Sacramento claiming that the climate in California prevented the sick from recovering their strength as the "air is very light & bad middle of the day very hot and nights very cool." The previous week's report had stated forty dead but "nothing near all the cases were reported" with Locke himself knowing of several unreported cases personally. A local blacksmith died overnight after his companions borrowed Locke's syringe and "We can hardly see a healthy looking individual in the streets." The letter also records the uncertain fortunes of men from Locke's home region scattered through the mines. William Beckett and his partners had spent the summer constructing a mining dam had struck gold on the first day and then immediately "the dam was washed away so they lost all their summer's labor." Other acquaintances had moved to Kelsey's Bar the southern mines or Oregon or were preparing to return east by way of Panama. Some remained convinced that California would reward perseverance while others had "seen enough" after accomplishing nothing. Locke regarded success as largely accidental: "Thousands are here and in the mines who want to get home and cannot-not able to do seamen's duty and no money to pay but they have got to stay in the mines and do the best they can. Some it is true have been lucky. It is all luck. If they happen to hit a good place they do well." News that cholera had entered the mining districts increased his alarm. Locke feared especially for men living in tents as the rainy season approached with poor food and little protection from exposure. Sacramento itself was marked by nightly violence: "There are murders or robberies about every night. One man killed in front of our house a few nights ago. We heard him holler and heard the blows. Next morning he died. His head was dreadfully mangled." Locke closes with an emotional message to his wife and children. His health finances and prospects all appeared uncertain and he repeatedly asked his family and church to pray for him: "Tell the dear Children to be good and if they never see me again when I am gone they will have the satisfaction . of knowing they acted as thy Father requested . Pray for me ask the Church to pray for me indeed I know I have your prayers and you have mine often."
