Enclosure as 144 C-0. 182403 Government Civil Hospital Hongkong 29th November 1888,
In compliance with directions from His Excellency the Officer Administering the Government contained in your letter of the 26th instant, we have this day examined Dr Wharry, the Superintendent of the Civil Hospital, as to his physical fitness to perform medico-legal post mortem examinations in addition to his work in connexion with the Hospital.
We find that Dr. Wharry suffers from latent heart disease and that he is physically unfit for extra duties of more than a very temporary character. Should the extra duty entail a prolonged attendance in Court, or much medico-legal work beyond the performance of post-mortem examination, we do not think Dr Wharry physically fit to do this and properly perform his important duties as Superintendent of Government Civil Hospital.
