"There is great distress in the city for want of cash. Friendship Is nearly entirely banished from our city"
In this quote that I got from the book Fever 1793 is trying to express that people were running out of money and couldn't find a way to get money because all the cities were at risk of getting the fever. Friendships were totally gone because no one really knew who had the fever and who didn't. So when they would see somebody they would getaway or be really rude. Fever 1793 is reflecting that in that time of the epidemic, there was no true friends.
