4. The Registrar-General's quarterly return of births, marriages, and deaths published 3rd February 1854, and quoted in The Times the same day stated :
   In the sub-district of Soham, in Cambridgeshire, the deaths, which had been 50 in the corresponding quarter of 1852, rose to 112 last quarter, in consequence of cholera in October and November, which was fatal to 61 persons. In the district of Ely, in the same county, a great deal of fever prevailed at Stretham, and 2 cases of cholera occurred at Haddenham, while in the parish of Sutton diarrhoea attacked the inmates of almost every house. The deaths were 61 in the sub-district of Ely, against 39 in the corresponding quarter of 1852, and 17 of those were caused by cholera. (Haddenham is about 7 miles west of Soham, so Newman and the other Haddenham case were almost certainly part of the same outbreak.
