But the third. But what in my opinion conduced most to the improved health of the European portion of the Garrison was sending 50 discharged from Hospital on board the Minden for a month or six weeks, by which their strength was completely restored. At one time during the hot months 175 men were afloat in the Harbour, which effectually prevented any crowding in either Barracks or Hospital.

A Fives Court has been built and now affords healthy exercise and amusement for the European Soldiers. I perfectly agree with Dr. Auchinleck in his views of the cause of an abatement of sickness in the Garrison during the past year; except that he has omitted to mention that he has himself proceeded to inquire into these causes in the most dispassionate and ingenuous manner, and that he has founded upon his inquiries a system of treatment and regime in the Military Hospital which has chiefly contributed to the happy results.

The above detailed.
