Lock Hospital and this construction of a Civil Hospital, and this are matters which can be appropriately arranged and planned whilst the whole field of actions contemplated is under discussion.

20.

Notwithstanding the ingenious devices of the Colonial Surgeon to mitigate the present Lock Hospital, I have no hesitation in stating, after personal inspection of the Building and of the medical work carried on there, that its continuance is a disgrace to the Colony. Though there are frequently more than 40, and seldom less than 30 diseased women there, it possesses only 20 beds, and is wholly inadequate for the most ordinary requirements of either care or decency. The Civil Hospital that adjoins it is in a ruinous and dilapidated state, although its successful management under the circumstances (and despite the building) reflects great credit on Dr. Murray.

21.

There were 1122 admissions to the Civil Hospital last year. The death percentage was only 12.21, though many of the Chinese patients were in a moribund state when taken in, and though the Civil Hospital receives all cases of persons injured by violence and accident.
