"The explanations in this case

are most unsatisfactory. Two men

are taken to the Hospital between

10 and 11 in the evening of the 1st

instant suffering from the effects

of some poison, the nature of

which is not Known. The wardmaster

treats them with an emetic which

is probably, of sulphate of zinc which is Kept for

such cases. He

does not think it necessary

to warn Dr Wharry; and the men

fortunately recovered without seeing any

medical man, the

Superintendent not having seen

them till 11 o'clock next morning

when they appeared perfectly

well. Had the poison been

another more deadly Kind, they

might have died, without seeing The Superintendent. This state

of things, is in my opinion most discreditable to a Government Hospital."
