Did the sick men suffer from the delay in augmenting rations, or from the quantity issued when making exertion?

Trim the delay they were without rations which you deemed of importance for the proper treatment of your patients?

What were those medicines?

// some salts, Gumm, Extract of digitalis, But what of Laudanum, bicarbonate of Soda?

22. Aside from the suffering caused by the delay in complying with the request, was there any complaint about not being supplied with the medicines you have mentioned and if so, what reduction?

They needed Dr. Saund to have the medicine. It was possible an earlier supply would have prevented the delay in want of them, not having a grain of quinine in store. Further, a proportion of bark was sent with a day's rations, more were sent back.

Then the doctor, with the quinine, acted formally; in the manner were drawn out, which occasioned delay and inconvenience.

With respect to the crowded state of the hospital, I have alleged that the relents to a batch of men arrived there.

You came here with a space of rest, went crowded, and were ordered to have 1 or 2 aged at the Faber Hospital.

Entire space between each bed, with a double row of colouring, 20 or so down in other wards.

On the 21st of August, landed from the Arrandah, this lasted for three days, I have seen sick men for want of room.

You speak of the lowering of the death rate, having been unalleviated times from sickness, the performance was satisfactory.

To what extent do you consider that you have given satisfactory discharge to the duties and to what degree did the sick suffer in never enjoying proper health?

Rice was issued last September, three days' rations were in the sick report at that period; State the quantity.

I conceive the sick suffered greatly.
