N: 205.

65 numbers of Merchant Sailors on leave from their ships are constantly on shore, whilst it is also a large Garrison town. These elements, which are present all the year round, no doubt contribute more to the spread of disease than the men of the Navy, who are here only for a limited part of the year.

In my opinion, therefore, whether from the point of view of the amount of usefulness of the Examination and Lock Hospital to the Navy, or from that of compensation to the Colony for disease which might be spread by the men of the Fleet, introduced and having regard to the amount of work done, the grant might well be further reduced. If I might be allowed to suggest, I should say that £100 per annum would be a liberal sum, and believe it would be generally so considered here.

I have to,

(sd) William H. Kloyd.

Dep. Insp: General.

Submitted for the information of the Commander in Chief, observing that I fully concur in Dr. Kloyd's report and consider that the Grant should be reduced to £100 per annum.
