Peti Pois Island - Lieut. Gleig (British) described Pea Island in his Journal: "It is scarcely possible to imagine a place more completely wretched. It is a swamp, containing a small space of firm ground at one end, and almost wholly unadorned by trees of any sort.  William Surtees with the 95th Rifle Corps, found it "a complete desert." Diary of an unidentified British officer: "Disembarked on a small island, the whole of which except about 6 acres was a complete swamp, passed a cold night.  For five days, the number of troops increased with each arriving ferry, until the island had all the appearance of a crowded concentration camp. Food was scarce--again for a lack of cargo space. Some salt meat and ship's biscuits were washed down with a draught of rum.  (Page 155 of Blaze of Glory-­The Fight for New Orleans, 1814-1815" by Samuel Carter III (1971) St. Martin's Press, New York, N.Y.  MJS II 00024 December 1814)

  The specific offense charged against her is, that during the funeral procession of the late Lieut. DeKay, she was laughing and mocking at his remains, and on being interrogated by the Commanding General she replied that she was "in good spirits that day."  (N.O. Commercial Bulletin - Wed.

YELLOW FEVER AT BAY ST. LOUIS, 1853 -TESTIMONY OF DR. J.

 

M. W. PICTON Bay of St. Louis, Miss.  His first case at the Bay of St. Louis occurred on July 15, 1853, the second on the 17th.

 

  The first was a resident of New Orleans, the second had just arrived from Nicaragua.  Both were taken on board the steamboat from New Orleans on their passage across the Lake.  These were the first cases occurring at the Bay of St. Louis.

 

  Previous to this time intermittence prevailed generally. The Doctor returned to town (presumably New Orleans), and cannot say if the disease spread from these cases.

 

Dr. Picton thinks the disease communicable from one person to another, wherever the epidemic influence prevails; thinks the disease was imported this year.

 

  The weather at the Bay of St. Louis was warm during the day and rather cool at night during the latter part of August and first of September.  Westerly winds prevailed during the month of July and first of August.

 

Noticed much formation of mold during the summer.

 

Has never seen a second case of Yellow Fever occurring in the same individual.

 

Thinks the intemperate are more liable, and the attack more likely to be fatal.

 

Thinks the epidemic ceased from want of subjects.

 

  Has seen two cases of recovery from black vomit--one was a young lady of fourteen; the other a negro of twelve years of age.

 

  Always observed a peculiar odor in Yellow Fever patients.  First noticed this in 1847.
