[Music] for [Music] [Music] [Music] for [Music] elf board did I know about elf been booring bones for over 10 years never been sick a d me let come with them specs they'll regret of us stepping footing here they will hey will we make any money well as long as a bloody elf office keeps up our backs and we find a few more buers Annie go fetch more water for your mom let him try just let him try and shut us down trespass against us lead us not into temptation but deliverance from [Music] Evil evening what are you doing inspecting the pump for damage why are we picking the lock water from this pump is the source of the outbreak if ingested you will get Colora vomiting water rest stools to your body as a withered shell only consolation will be death within 24 hours do again I'll rip your eyes [Music] out all right break it up what's going on here sir this pump is the source of the outbreak must be shut down immediately you have authorization only one way to close this pump and that's with the approval of the Board of Governors so move along or I'll arrest you for tampering with public property I'm coming Mr far I need your help doctor the office is closed William please I used the addresses you gave me to draw a black mark for each death the pump is located here the center of the outbreak oh yes Dr Paris will address the St James V ball tomorrow we must convince them to shut it down they won't take kindly to your findings if I could just speak with them before they convene why can't you he sequestered himself to White Hall I thought if I could just borrow your government credentials I could lose my position your position recording fatalities you yourself could have prevented Her Majesty has requested a report on the crisis she wants to know what it is you plan to do about it I've explained that you intend to address the board personally apparently she's concerned the disease May spread across London there are reports of Cera across golden Square Barrack Street as well as St an and undoubtedly the rotting sewers it's been years since they were repaired it's not the sewers it's the bone boilers the Tallow melters the distilleries and all of the other so-called business practices which spew their filthy Vapors into the air what exactly is a bone boiler a merchant who cooks discarded Hooves horns and animal bones to remove the marrow and flesh Hooves and horns are used to produce glue well be bones are reserved for cutlery or buttons that's like the one on NOA Dr to snow I wasn't aware you had access to whiteall Dr Paris I understand you will be addressing the Board of Governors tomorrow I ask that you recommend the Broad Street pump be shut down immediately and why would I do that it is the source of the outbreak I have a map which clearly demonstrates Maps every physician in the world agrees that color is of a miasmic nature with all you respect sir we cannot let our narrow views prevent us from discovering new truths I only meant I don't know how you got in here but if you value your medical reputation I'd suggest you leave now then I shall recommend that in the interest of the Public's Health we get to shut down every last bone boiler in London [Music] perhaps you shouldn't don't use T anyy go on [Music] what did you expect for him to welcome your theory with open arms if I'm to go before the board alone I will need irrefutable evidence something that cannot be ignored don't show them this one it's quite far from your pump and they'll certainly challenge you on anything out of the ordinary aberations and anomalies if we were to draw a circle around the Heartbreak we could ask ourselves a very revealing question why is there disease where there shouldn't be William we know this person drank from the pump we just have to prove it [Music] [Music] doctor and what you're looking for if we can ask ourselves the question why is there disease where there shouldn't be we can also ask why is there no disease where there should be the lion Brewery at least 50 workers there not a single case of cola any your mother's dead for if you're looking for the brewery it's next door whoa you startled me perhaps you would be willing to help me why should I help you it's a matter of public health well you got enjoy being a bone boiler what a smoke and a stench it's only trying to determine from where the Brewer consumes its War Alex I knew you were from the AL office you're looking to shut us down I am a doctor but I do not work for the ball of Health well no this doctor and my business has nothing to do with Cola yes that is exactly what I am trying to prove that it spread is not by Vapors but by an infected water puff you do you know him that's the blow telling you about was missing with f pump you're saying the Brewer exclusively uses this well and not the pump on Broad Street that's exactly what I'm saying right William William Doctor William the meeting has started where are they in the V Next Door the map thank you sir therefore and in conclusion I ask this Board of Governors to eliminate these bone boilers these Tallow melters all of whom release the miasma and propagate this wretched epidemic we're trying [Applause] what make way my friends please I have just returned from The Lion Brewery located at the epicenter of the outbreak and not a single case of CA its proximity to the Broad Street pump contradicts your own Theory they have a well of their own what is it you're telling us a ridiculous notion the epidemic is stemming from an infected water pump however he fails to mention that all leading research shows that chera is a vapor a field in which he clearly has no knowledge I am trained in the US of ether and I know that gases are injurious only at close range and in very large doses the waste and refuse produce multitudes of bad air and poison but you would have us believe that they are responsible the law of diffusion of gases states that if a gas is not injurious to those on the spot that it is impossible that it should be the persons further removed they all seem quite healthy color there's nothing order in this room say the origin of the epidemic is as you describe how then do you explain this is this a game to you your dots represent the lives of real people by our very own William El lost his mother on Wednesday Eve and his Factory half his employees dead bringing production to a standstill the covered percussion caps will not reach our boys in the Crimean Peninsula so so before you waste our time with your Reckless Theory consider the ramifications are you listening is this from your factory yes it's ours and is this your mother my mother I'm so sorry does your mother did your mother live here yeah she moved there 3 months ago it is well understood by all of the world's leading Physicians that this disease of AIC nature not people are [Music] dying continue doctor has your mother visited your factory anytime recently no just been over two months and she set foot in SoHo and where do your employees generally fetch their drinking water we are fortunate to have the Broad Street pump just nearby the water is quite cool and fresh we've been over this just another moment in fact mother loved the taste of it so much that we had two canisters delivered each week to her home if colera were a vapor loose in the air why would this one woman all alone in that entire District be its only victim is my I shall not he makes me lie down in you've saved lives here today he leads me beside the Still Waters he restores my he leads me in the paths of righteous or [Music] good e [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music]
