Framed Print of The Cholera in Egypt: its source and cause - scene on the shore at Damietta... 1883. Creator: Unknown
The Cholera in Egypt: its source and cause - scene on the shore at Damietta, sketched by Our Special Artist, Mr. Schonberg, 1883....the cholera, which has already proved so disastrous, first appeared [in Damietta] a few days ago, and the deaths have increased to a hundred and forty in one day...The effect of this news has been very alarming, but measures have been taken to cut off all communication between the province of Damietta and the rest of Egypt...It is believed that the disease has not been imported from India or Arabia, but that it is of local origin; and it may not improbably have been caused by the barbarous custom of leaving unburied the bodies of cattle which die of sickness, or throwing them into the creeks and canals. Mr. Schonberg...states that, while he was at Port Said, there came a Russian steamer with three hundred oxen on board, for sale to the slaughterhouse there. It was found that the cattle were infected with the rinderpest, and so the master of the vessel, as he could not sell his freight, left Port Said to return home, but threw all the living cargo, with those which had died, into the sea. Their carcases were soon washed ashore, and lay all along the seacoast towards Damietta'. From "Illustrated London News", 1883.
