Several certificates which the Honorable Mr Forth has received from his former Medical attendants testify to the repeated attacks of Diarrhoea, from which he has suffered in this Colony. Since my 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 he was attended by Dr Kane for an attack of fever, which left him in a weak state that I recommended proceeding to Japan to recruit; advice which he informed me he could not follow without hesitation. I have no hesitation in saying that he ought not to remain in the colony another Summer without a previous return to Europe - Neglect of this may entail fatal consequences.
