Dusk fell, and Louis Bonaparte ended a busy day by taking a carriage ride back to the Golden Lion Inn.
Because of his sensitive identity, he wasn't assigned by Arthur to deal with the Liverpool City Council and the Port Authority but was given the task of supervising cholera prevention work.
One couldn't tell if it was because the £200,000 Liverpool district renovation plan had taken effect, or if the various departments of Liverpool, feeling guilty about the assassination attempt on Arthur, were only trying to compensate in other areas.
At any rate, from what Louis saw during his rounds today, the cholera prevention efforts were quite effective.
Liverpool's Sanitary Committee not only strictly enforced the various regulations of the "Cholera Prevention Manual," but also whitewashed crowded or dirty areas and poured a significant amount of lime into sewers and drains for disinfection purposes.
