Sir,

117

Georgetown Gaol, March 30, 1875.

I have the honour to submit the Medical Report of this prison for the year 1874.

2. The number of prisoners committed during the year was 7,720, a very large increase on that of 1873, which was 4,897,

3. So great an addition to the prison gang naturally caused a greater demand on the hospital, and our admissions amounted to 3,552, against 2,535 in 1873, an excess of 717.

4. The death rate, however, did not keep pace with the increased number of patients, as we had to record only 11 deaths, against 14 in 1873.

5. The diseases most prevalent were, as usual, fevers, principally of the intermittent type, diarrhoeas, and ulcers.

6. Fortunately we were not visited by an epidemic during the year, or I very much fear it would

haye found a very suitable nidus within our overcrowded walls.

1. Three executions took place within the prison during the year, and a similar number in 1873.

8. And six insane prisoners were forwarded to the lunatic asylum, and eight in 1879.

9. I beg to lay over tables showing the races, diseases, numbers treated, and results.

His Honour J. Brumell, Esq., Sheriff of Demerara.

(Signed)

H. HUTSON, Surgeon td Georgetown Gaol,

RETURN showing the Number of Prisoners admitted into the Georgetown Gaol Hospital from

1st January to 30th June, 1874, distinguishing their Native Countries, Diseases, and Results of Treatment.
