" his superiors"
I Wharry's objections to the rules are so far as I can gather. He finds them first materials for the degradation of his position and for making it his principal duty to attend on the Colonial Surgeon, and secondly he complains that the proposed regulations are already in force less of course or as matters of routine.
His arguments are scarcely consistent. Two or three letters from Dr. Wharry that I have never sought to degrade his position. She is perfectly well aware that I have carried out a policy of conciliation and forbearance towards him to a point beyond which it would have been pure weakness to have gone. A glance at the proposed rules is sufficient to show that the charge that they will tend to make it his principal duty to attend on the Colonial Surgeon is nothing but a reluctant exaggeration.
As to Dr. Wharry's second objections to the rules that he has always supplied me as a matter of routine with the information I should obtain under these rules, I can only say that if he had done so, I should never have drawn up the rules and submitted them to His Excellency. Certainly he ought to have furnished me with the information. The rules only embody the ordinary routine of a Hospital, and it is the fact of Dr. Wharry showing too little disposition to abide by that routine that has led to much trouble.
As to Dr. Wharry's charge against me of using expressions calculated to unsettle and covertly attack the change of opinion apparently produced in him by the lapse of time, I should not enter into language entirely beside the purpose and unbecoming were it not that it seems to me to afford convincing evidence of a feeling which Dr. Wharry entertains towards me and which has formed all along the ground of my complaints.
Under the circumstances, therefore, anxious as I am for peace, I cannot recede from the position I have taken with reference to the proposed rules. My continued opinion is that without some such regulations capable of being authoritatively enforced, I am unable to perform the responsible duties of my office in connection with the Civil Hospital in the public interests. The exigency is too far removed from one to drop, and I am compelled to ask His Excellency for a substantive decision in the questions I have raised.
I have the honour to be,
Your obedient Servant,
