On September 5, 1886, the Russian ship “Moskau” arrived in Honolulu Harbor. The port physician, Dr. John W. Brodie, reported the ship’s arrival to the Board of Health, who immediately ordered the Moskau move outside of the harbor.

Because it had arrived from Yokohama, Japan, a special examination of the ship, its cargo, and passengers was required before anyone or anything could be brought ashore. This was part of the Kingdom’s quarantine procedures, which, were put into place in 1839, to prevent the spread of infectious diseases. In 1886, the main concerns were measles and smallpox.

The ship’s captain stated that although they had departed from an ‘infected port,’ none of the officers or passengers had been ashore there and no one had been ill since they left Russia. That did not change the opinion of the Board of Health. Fumigation of the ship was ordered, as well as mail, freight bound for the Japanese Consul stationed in Honolulu, and personal luggage of passengers who were going ashore.

Once those procedures were completed, the Moskau was released from quarantine and the distinguished guests were allowed ashore. Those guests had an appointment to meet the King on September 7.
