Colonial Surgeon

(Hong Kong, 27 January, 1887.)

My Dear Murray,

The

question you propose

to ask

respecting the case

you

mention, seems

very simple. "A man's health is in such a state,

that it is almost certain he will die should he not be removed to another climate, and the only possible way of doing

so, is by a ship without a Medical Man? Might I not vary

the question and say

Is this man to

be left to all but certain death (with

no means of

recovery

hopeless prospects of

survival within his reach?)
