The Quaker City made port at Cagliari October 13, 1867 but because of cholera no one left the ship.  The ship then proceeded to Algiers.

The Matterhorn  is a mountain of the Alps, straddling the main watershed and border between Switzerland and Italy.

The Quaker City was scheduled to stop at Malta but reports of cholera prevented that and the ship bypassed the island.

Bædeker, 1867:

Leghorn, Ital. Livorno, French Livourne.

Kaltenleutgeben is located in the southern Vienna Woods near the industrial district in Lower Austria. More than 73 percent of the area is forested and the town encompasses 17.5 square kilometers. The community borders on the extreme southwest of the city of Vienna and is a popular recreation area for the Viennese population. 

The parish church of St. James in Kaltenleutgeben was built in 1728-1729 and is a major work of the baroque architect Jakob Oeckhl. He built and financed the building after the death of his second wife because of a vow he made with the birth of his son.

The name Jungfrau ("maiden, virgin"), which refers to the highest of the three prominent mountains overlooking the Interlaken region, along with the Mönch ("monk") and the Eiger ("ogre"), is most likely derived from the name Jungfrauenberg given to Wengernalp, the alpine meadow directly facing the huge northern side of the Jungfrau, across the Trummelbach gorge. Wengernalp was so named for the nuns of Interlaken Monastery, its historical owner.

Bædeker: (1898) Kafr Hawar, the usual halting place between Baniyas and Damascus. The village is inhabited by Muslims and contains (on the W. side) the ruins of a small square temple of the Roman period. The interior (which is empty) must be approached through the hut in front. By the house above the waterfall on the hill we obtain a fine view of the plain, particularly of the region of Salsa' (Route 31, p. 303).
