I take the liberty of addressing Your Excellency upon the necessity that exists in Hongkong, for the formation of a Hospital, or of some such establishment, where servants of Government, Police, or others not entitled to Military or Naval Professional attendance, may be provided with means of cure, when labouring under sickness. The extent over which the Police Stations are necessarily placed, renders it difficult to give efficient Medical Attendance upon them all, even in cases of ordinary sickness, and in the severe illnesses unfortunately too frequent in this Climate, it is impossible that due attention can be paid, or that the necessary comforts and attendants can be procured.

It is here proposed to institute a Public Hospital in connection with a Dispensary, in addition to a Seaman's Hospital already founded by private beneficence.
I have the honour to state that a Surgeon is to be allowed...
It is clear that a Gentleman is now acting in that capacity.
I will undertake that their duties have not been...
Save time...
The requisites now required, which apply to a Colonial Surgeon who would be able to select cases for the Hospital, do not apply to a Cold Surgeon. It has struck me that such an institution will be most expedient for the relief of sickness and as a source of utility. I will propose the region to command the theme for the acting Surgeon.
