"I'm sure there were times Constance was afraid, but she kept on putting one foot in front of the other, and we have to know that the spirit that was with her is with us, too.-Sister Hannah, Prioress of the Community of St. Mary, SewaneeThis week on Faithfully Memphis, join the Reverend Lisa McIndoo, Rector of Holy Apostles Episcopal Church (Collierville) for a conversation with Sister Hannah, CSM, the Prioress of the Community of St. Mary in Sewanee, Tennessee. An Episcopal Benedictine monastic community for women, the community was founded in 1865 in New York – the first Episcopal monastic community in the United States. In 1873 the Community sent Sisters to Memphis to begin a school for girls and establish a Church home for the poor and needy, but their work was interrupted by the Yellow Fever Epidemic of 1878. All but one of the Sisters died in their attempts and are remembered today as the “Martyrs of Memphis” for their heroic service. The one surviving Sister moved to Sewanee, TN and in 1888 started what is now the Southern Province of the Sisters of St. Mary. Today the Sisters' ministries include providing spiritual direction, leading retreats and workshops, preaching and teaching at churches across the country, and working with Oblates, Associates, volunteers, and Organic Prayer Program interns.  You can learn more about the Community of St. Mary here: https://www.communityofstmarysouth.org/

In 1793 a yellow fever epidemic almost destroyed Philadelphia. The young city was saved by two Black preachers, Richard Allen and Absalom Jones, who organized the free Black community in providing essential services and nursing the sick and dying. Allen and Jones were assured of two things: that stepping up would help them gain full equality and citizenship, and that they were immune to the disease. Neither promise turned out to be true.  About Innate: How Science Invented the Myth of Race “Calamity in Philadelphia” is Episode 2 of Innate: How Science Invented the Myth of Race, a podcast and magazine project that explores the historical roots and persistent legacies of racism in American science and medicine. Published through Distillations, the Science History Institute's highly acclaimed digital content platform, the project examines the scientific origins of support for racist theories, practices, and policies.

The yellow fever epidemic of 1793 posed one of the greatest threats to the young United States. Doctors and scientists couldn't agree on the cause or the treatment. They split into factions and debated their theories publicly. On today's show, Thomas Apel, historian and author of Feverish Bodies, Enlightened Minds: Science and the Yellow Fever Controversy in the Early American Republic, joins host Lindsay Graham to discuss how science, religion and politics were intertwined in the controversy surrounding the epidemic.Listen ad free with Wondery+.

In 1793, Philadelphia served as the nation's temporary capital, and the yellow fever epidemic crippled the federal government. After fleeing the capital, President George Washington struggled to make decisions and govern the young nation. Meanwhile, Philadelphia was running out of space to bury the dead. With the epidemic growing in strength, crime soared and jobless tenants were evicted from their homes. But soon, relief would come from an unexpected source.Listen ad free with Wondery+.

In September 1793, yellow fever continued to ravage Philadelphia. As the death toll mounted, Dr. Benjamin Rush raced to find a cure. Rush used an aggressive and controversial treatment to battle the grisly disease, sparking a political backlash. Soon Treasury Secretary Alexander Hamilton and President George Washington were forced to flee the disease, leaving government on the verge of collapse. But the Mayor of Philadelphia, and ordinary citizens, stepped in to try to save their city from ruin.Listen ad free with Wondery+.

In the hot and humid summer of 1793, a deadly epidemic struck Philadelphia, then the capital of the United States. Thousands suffered high fevers, yellow skin, and bloody vomit. Many died within days.At first, the cause of the illnesses was a mystery. Then the city's leading physician, Dr. Benjamin Rush, identified it as yellow fever, one of the era's deadliest diseases. Panic soon spread through Philadelphia. Schools, stores, and churches shut their doors, as the epidemic began to threaten the stability of the young nation.Listen ad free with Wondery+.

SummaryYellow Fever is a viral tropical disease. It is most prevalent in equatorial Africa (90%) and South America (10%). No specific treatments exist but it can be prevented with a highly affective vaccine. The disease is spread via mosquito vectors (arbovirus). Yellow refers to the jaundice that occurs in severe infection from liver damage. Bleeding (hemorrhagic fever) and kidney damage are other severe manifestations. Morbidity and MortalityAbout 5% of people infected with the Yellow Fever virus will die. Foreign visitors to endemic countries are at the higher risk of severe infection if exposed. Hemorrhagic fever, liver failure, and other organ failures can lead to shock and death. It is very difficult to know how many infections occur annually but the WHO estimates about 200,000 (likely many more). Epidemics periodically occur and usually have worse than normal case fatality rates. StoryYellow fever outbreaks plagued the America's in the 18th and 19th centuries, having been introduced from Africa just few hundred years prior. The Yellow Fever Epidemic of 1793 killed 9% of the residents in Philadelphia. Many, including George Washington, fled the city. Yellow Fever has plagued the US military for years before the 17D vaccine was discovered in 1937 by Max Theiler (Noble Prize).  Key Points1.  Yellow fever is endemic to equatorial Africa and South America, but strangely not Asia.2.  People living and traveling to these areas should be vaccinated with the 17D live attenuated yellow fever vaccine.3.  Fever, chills, headache, and myalgias are common. A minority of cases progress to liver failure and hemorrhage.  About half of cases that progress will be fatal4. Treatment is supportive. As such, prevention with vaccine, vector control, and avoiding mosquito bites is very important. Avoid blood thinners and anti-platelets. References-       Keystone et al. Travel Medicine, 4th Ed.

Voices of the Dead: Battling the Yellow Fever Epidemic of 1878: A Novel (Creole Voices Book 1)  By John Babb Her patients are dying. And it's not just the yellow fever that's killing them. Yellow fever. In 1878, the words sent shivers down the spines of anyone living near a body of water. From New Orleans, up the Mississippi River to Memphis and beyond, thousands of people sickened and died during that terror-filled summer. A determined band of volunteers fought for their patients' lives. A Creole nurse traveled north from New Orleans to help, bringing with her a very special necklace. An Irish chambermaid learned nursing and put her life at risk trying to lower her patients' fevers. A Jewish physician volunteered despite lacking immunity to the virus. A fisherman became one of the first black policemen in the South when the white force was decimated by the disease. Priests, sisters, reverends, rabbis, hearse drivers, gravediggers, retired military, an unashamed madam, a gambler… Some survived. Others paid the ultimate price. And with patients dying from something that wasn't yellow fever, only one person could hear the voices of the dead and help. Listen to the beginning of this excellent historical tale right now. “This is an extremely absorbing book about a difficult topic. The author has woven engaging character stories into the sad, but authentic newspaper reports from the time. Not all of the characters are heroes. They are every sort of individual whom we might have encountered in Memphis in 1878. Do you want to learn the history of what an epidemic like this one can do to a city when there is no known cure, and how ordinary and not so ordinary people cope? Read this book. Do you just want something engrossing and interesting to read? Read this book. It has heroism, cowardice, love, hope, and despair - all the human emotions that can surface in a story as powerful as this one.” From a review on Amazon John Babb is a retired Assistant Surgeon General and a retired Rear Admiral in the US Public Health Service.

In this episode, we talk with Deanne Stephens, the author of Plague among the Magnolias: The 1878 Yellow Fever Epidemic in Mississippi. Stephens is a professor of history at the University of Southern Mississippi and a faculty member with their Center for the Study of the Gulf South.

Yesterday, the number of people with the coronavirus who died in the United States exceeded 300,000. Today we offer another incubator-style, experimental reading from primary source material: Excerpted letters from Baron Joseph-Xavier Delfau de Pontalba written from New Orleans during the first documented Yellow Fever epidemic there. It was recorded in Sonic Canvas Studio with audio producers Steve Chyzyk and Steve Himmelfarb. The original music is also by Steve. Our reader is Colin Miller. The material in this reading was graciously translated and provided to us by Pierre Delfau de Pontalba, the Pontalba family historian, son of Charles-Edouard and Isabelle, Baron and Baroness de Pontalba. Further specimens have been excerpted by the Louisiana Museum Foundation. The subject, Xavier as he was known, was born in 1754 in New Orleans and schooled in France. His father died when he was six. He served in the French and Spanish military retiring from the French army as captain. In 1784 he moved back to manage the family indigo plantation near New Orleans, Married “Ton Ton”, Jeanne Francoise Louise Le Breton. Niece of the most powerful man in Louisiana, then under Spanish rule, Governor Esteban Miro. When the governorship ended, Miro, was sent back to Spain. Where he died. Xavier’s small family moved back to France. Ton Ton and their young son Celestine preceded. Xavier stayed, preparing the family property—much of which he had profitably developed—for more than two years. During this separation, Xavier wrote often to his wife in a long, epistolary letter sent in a time before regular mail when most post was hand carried. We now time travel to 1796 New Orleans. Collin reads Xavier’s written thoughts to his wife who was very far away. Image: Observations sur la fièvre jaune, faites à Cadix, en 1819 / par MM. Pariset et Mazet ... et rédigées par M. Pariset.

It was August 18, 1920 and America had only secured 35 states that were FOR ratifying the 19th Amendment. Tennessee was the last state that was going to vote and it wasn’t looking good. They called it the “War of the Roses” with pro ratifiers, aka “suffs” donning yellow roses and the antis donning red ones. The suffs were short one vote when a 24 year old representative, Harry T. Burn, with a red rose pinned to his lapel and a letter from his mother in his pocket, voted “aye” in favor of the amendment. His mother, Febb Burn, had sent him a letter stating “Dear Son, … Hurrah and vote for Suffrage and don’t keep them in doubt. With lots of love, Mama.” Harry T. Burn Years later he wrote, “I had always believed that women had an inherent right to vote. It was a logical attitude from my standpoint. My mother was a college woman, a student of national and international affairs who took an interest in all public issues. She could not vote. Yet the tenant farmers on our farm, some of whom were illiterate, could vote. On that roll call, confronted with the fact that I was going to go on record for time and eternity on the merits of the question, I had to vote for ratification.”  Hurrah and vote for suffrage! The Nineteenth Amendment guarantees all American women the right to vote, this included African American women (but unfortunately that part of the fight continued until Jim Crow laws were abolished). The 19th amendment reads, “The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of sex.” The amendment was first introduced to Congress in 1878 but it was not ratified until 1920. Tennessee became the “Perfect 36” on Aug 18, 1920 when it became the last state needed to ratify the amendment.  To celebrate the 100 year anniversary of the ratification of the 19th amendment, we’re going to look at some of the early Memphians that helped push for suffrage in America. Their hard work and determination helped further the cause and change the future for all women.  The first on our list are two sisters... Elizabeth Avery Meriwether and her sister in law Lide Smith Meriwether shared a home with their husbands, on Peabody Avenue. The sisters spent their time working together in the fight for women’s rights.  Elizabeth and her husband, Minor,  were quite progressive for their time. Upon their marriage, they signed a contract agreeing to share and invest equally. Elizabeth was one of the South’s first suffragettes and one of the first to publicly push for suffrage. She used her own money, that she received from maintaining properties, to start her own small newspaper, The Tablet, which promoted votes for women in every issue. This paper also voiced its support for equal pay for the sexes and advocated for Ms. Clara Conway to be elected to the school board.  Elizabeth once rented out the The Memphis Theatre, the largest in town, to deliver a public speech on women’s rights. Over 500 women attended and the Memphis Appeal wrote an article on how she “was a worthy advocate of her sex and that she was met with frequent bursts of applause”. In 1872, after hearing that Susan B. Anthony was arrested after attempting to vote, Elizabeth said that she was going to vote in the next Memphis election and if she was arrested, she would gladly share a cell with Miss Anthony. In the next election, she did just that, except she was not arrested. She felt that was due to her status in the community, while some believed her friends were the ones to accept the ballot, but then they threw it away.  During the 1880s, she began to travel with Susan B. Anthony across the country to advocate for women’s voting.  In 1883, Elizabeth, her husband, and children moved to St. Louis to escape the Yellow Fever Epidemic, but still continued her campaigning for women’s rights.  Elizabeth Meriwether Lide Meriwether While her sister in law was away,

Philadelphia has seen its share of health emergencies. Obviously, 2020 is the year of the coronavirus pandemic. There was the Spanish Flu in 1918. And in 1793, the city was devastated by a Yellow Fever outbreak. And in the center of that storm was Dr. Benjamin Rush, a physician, a signer of the Declaration of Independence, and a founding father that you should know more about. Stephen Fried is the author of a great book about Rush, it's called "Rush: Revolution, Madness, and Benjamin Rush, the Visionary Doctor Who Became a Founding Father." Fried joins KYW In Depth to talk about Dr. Rush and Philadelphia's history of dealing with health emergencies.
