VICTORIA GAOL.

REPORT BY DR. P. J. KELLY, Medical Officer.

I took over charge of Victoria Gaol on June 23rd, 1910. Previous to this date Dr. Fitzwilliams was in charge, being employed temporarily in Dr. Thomson's place till my arrival in the Colony.

Buildings. The prison buildings are well looked after and the prevailing sanitary conditions are satisfactory.

Towards the end of the year the new block of buildings to the West of the Hospital, affording accommodation for over seventy prisoners, was completed and occupied. This should obviate any possibility of overcrowding.

The total admissions to the Gaol Hospital during the year numbered one hundred and eighty-seven, which shows some considerable improvement, since in 1909 they numbered 269.

The percentage of hospital admissions to the total admissions to the Gaol was 3·8 (51 in 1909).

The number of cases of Malaria treated in the Gaol Hospital during the past ten years are as follows:-

1901 98 1906 22 1902 63 1907 56 1903 93 1908 68 1904 59 1909 13 1905 52 1910 16

Eighteen admissions were made as Febricula, i.e., a fever of a transient character in which no malarial parasites could be found in the blood.

There were 26 admissions for Dysentery and two deaths, 35 in 1909.

2 admissions for Beri-beri and one death. (8 in 1909.)

4 23 Syphilis. 15 9 Debility and two deaths. 12 12 Phthisis and three deaths. 11 Heart Disease,
