nove wards, auð seut informed of the attendants in the for Hardwaster Nation, who told me that it was not unusual for them to be absent either night or day; he frequently found them all absent himself. He had no authority over them, and, when he complained to the Superintendent he was told that the Hospital was not a place for Military discipline.

Asking him how the duties of the Hardwaslet were arranged; he said they had co hours of duty; they were all always supposed to be on duty when called; no special arrangements were made in their case; but in the case of the Chinese attendants, they took their duties 20 many hours at a time, and paid no attention to any orders except those received from the Superintendent.

Asked how many rounds the Superintendent made in the day, he said the Superintendent generally came about 9.30 am, and remained about three hours; he rarely visited the Hospital, unless specially sent for, after that, which was not often, he did what he could for patients who came to Hospital, if their cases did not appear serious, until the Superintendent made his round next day; that was the custom. Sometimes he had applied to Dr Marques for assistance, if a case required immediate attention, but had been told not to do so.

He had dressed wounds; those were not serious, and sent the patients away. 8 patients had left the Hospital before seeing the Superintendent themselves neglected. It was not his fault; he was under orders. Such a state of things as I describe cannot be considered conducive to the well-being of the patients or the good repute of the Hospital, and demands enquiries.
