Summary[edit]

Description
English: CASE XII. (Photograph 10). The original photograph from which this book illustration is derived was taken by Henry L. Chase in 1878 as a part of the "Report of the Special Sanitary Committee on the State of the Leper Settlement at Kalawao". Image was republished in the The New Orleans Medical and Surgical Journal in April 1880 as part of a later medical examination by John Harrison Bemiss in 1879.

CASE XII. (Photograph 10.) No history by Father Damien, Kaapu being dead.

Committee reports says:

Kaapu, a man from Waimaualo, the witness who testified to the digging of the graves. That testimony is—Kaapu, 32 years of age, and nine years at the settlement, says that he has been obliged to dig graves ever since he has come here. His hands are in a very bad condition. Has lost several joints of his fingers, and all are in an excoriated and suppurating condition. He is one of seven children and neither of his parents, nor any of his brothers or sisters have contracted the disease.
