Excerpt from The Cincinnati Lancet and Observer, 1874, Vol. 17

In the year 1817, the cholera first extended beyond the borders of India, and it therefore seems proper to date the history of the dis ease from this epidemic. The disease which had always before that period remained circumscribed in the provinces of India, where it had appeared as an epidemic, and then died out at the place of its origin, now took o1i an invading character It passed from India by all the outlets which gave passage to human currents. It extended eastward during that and the two succeeding years to China, and the Molucca and Spice Islands; and after a slow, but uninterrupted march westward, reached England and the United States in about fifteen years.

The same Space was traversed by the epidemic of 1849, in five years and a half, and that of 1806 in about six months.
