The war in the Crimea dragged on for nearly another eighteen months, bringing with it the horrors of Scutari and news of the appalling lack of medical attention — until the arrival of Florence Nightingale — all dutifully reported in the London papers. Day after day The Standard printed long lists of the troops who had died, many from cholera, dysentery and associated diseases.
