File information
Description

Notice to the poor on cholera, 1848. From the minutes of the West Ham Board of Guardians. States amongst others: “The Guardians are prepared to issue “CERTIFICATES” to the Poor generally, entitling them to Medical Relief gratuitously, should “CHOLERA” break out, or its symptoms prevail in the Neighbourhood. They recommend such persons as cannot afford to pay for Medical attendance to apply forthwith to the Relieving Officer, who will lay the application before the Board. It is important for the Poor to be put in possession of these “CERTIFICATES” before they are actually required.”
