Victoria, Hongkong. 29th February, 1860
The several certificates which the Medical attendants testify to the Honorable Mr Forth has received
Since his arrival last April I have been in almost constant attendance on him for the same complaint accompanied by congestion of the Liver - During my temporary absence in July Dr. Kane attended him for an Attack of fever- which left him in such a weak state, that I recommended his immediate departure to recruit; advice which he did not follow.
I have no hesitation in saying that he ought not to remain in the Colony another summer without a protracted return to Europe - Neglect of this recommendation may entail fatal consequences.
