Her incredible intellect, voracious curiosity, outstanding ability for drawing together disparate strands, and unceasing drive to learn more and know more have been an inspiring example over the past four years. This thesis owes much of its existence to her and her comments, recommendations, edits, and support. Thank you also to Ellen Wurtzel for guiding me through my first large-scale research paper in my third year at Oberlin, and for encouraging me to pursue honors. Shelley Lee has been an invaluable resource and advisor in the daunting process of putting together a fifty-some page research paper, while my fellow History honors candidates have been supportive, helpful in their advice, and great to commiserate with. Thank you to Steven Plank and everyone else who has listened to me discuss Britten and the Aldeburgh Festival and kindly offered suggestions. -

The Last Epidemic of Plague in England? Suffolk 1906-1918
THE LAST EPIDEMIC OF PLAGUE IN ENGLAND? SUFFOLK 1906-1918 by DAVID VAN ZWANENBERG APART from a single case of plague contracted in a laboratory at Porton in 1962 the last English outbreak of plague occurred in Suffolk. There were several official reports published soon after and there have been a number of short accounts based on these reports. This account of the epidemic was compiled with the aid of contemporary sources such as newspapers, letters, minutes of committees and coroner's depositions, together with information from one of the survivors, from several near relatives of the victims, as well as from official reports. In particular the author was fortunate in discovering a collection of letters, telegrams and other documents belonging to the late Dr. H. P. Sleigh, who was Medical Officer of Health of the Rural District of Samford at the time. THE DIAGNOSIS OF PLAGUE Five miles south of Ipswich, about halfway between the villages of Freston and Holbrook lies a small group of cottages called Latimer Cottages (see Map and Photograph). At the time that plague was first diagnosed this building was divided into three homes. In the middle cottage lived a farmworker, Mr. Chapman, his wife and four of his wife's children of a former marriage. On Tuesday, 13 September 1910, the third of these children, Annie Goodall, aged nine, was taken ill. She had not been away from home since 4 September. Following a bout of vomiting she ran a high temperature. She was seen by Dr. Carey on the following day when her temperature was 105°F, but apart from her general toxaemia he could detect no physical signs. -
