[1532] Besides the papers or books already cited, accounts were published for the following places: Warrington, by Mr Glazebrook, secretary to the Local Board of Health; Oxford, by Rev. V.

Greenhow, M.D. (Trans. Epid. Soc. 1861); London, by Halma-Grand (Relation etc. Paris, 1832), and by Gaselee and Tweedie (Lond. 1832). There are also various minor notices: for Whittlesea (Lond. Med.

Surg. J. II. 359), Derby (ibid. 11. 383).
[1533] The daily mortality in Paris at the beginning of the epidemic was as follows (Annual Register, 1832, p. 318):
| Days | Cholera deaths | ||
| March | 27-31 | 98 | |
| April | 1 | 79 | |
| 2 | 168 | ||
| 3 | 212 | ||
| 4 | 242 | ||
| 5 | 351 | ||
| 6 | 416 | ||
| 7 | 582 | ||
| 8 | 769 | ||
| 9 | 861 | ||
| 10 | 848 | ||
| 11 | 769 | ||
| 12 | 768 | ||
| 13 | 816 | ||
| 14 | 692 | ||
| 15 | 567 | ||
| 16 | 572 | ||
To the 16th of April the deaths were about 8700; before the end of the month the total was nearly doubled. As the whole cholera mortality of Paris in 1832 was about 19,000, April must have had much the greater part of it.

[1539] Paterson, u. s. for the fishing village of Collieston, Aberdeenshire: “In most instances where the lancet was used at the proper period little else was required. The patient, although in an apparently hopeless state at the time of my visit, was in these instances not unfrequently in the course of twenty-four hours out of danger.”
