Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Trip to Germany During Wartime, by a Medical Free-Lance During the two hours after the announced time of departure While the captain waited for the appearance of a certain diplomat (who was to be a passenger), an extensive search on the dock and in the rooms of the ship made by the cabin stew ard and his Chief, at last resulted in finding the trunk in a corner of the second class dining room with its face to the wall. Great Rabin! Most famous of all chief stew ards of the North German Lloyd (now on a vaca tion), if this had occurred on one Of your boats your hair would have risen and possibly turned grey, even so, like that of the most famous quar antine expert, Robert Koch, if he had seen the subordinates of the Health Officer Of the port of New York attempt to disinfect the baggage of the passengers on the forward deck of the steamer Elbe, on October the second, 1892, by scrubbing the outer surfaces of the trunks with brushes dipped in carbolized soap water to prevent the Asiatic cholera, then prevalent in Hamburg, from taking root in New York. But no, on second thought, there would have been no ascending of hair for both of these famous men were bald headed.
