Hong Kong

16th May 1894

In accordance with the desire of His Excellency the Governor I have the honor to forward you the following short report on the outbreak of Bubonic Plague which has occurred in Hong Kong lately. From a medical point of view I will deal with it because I want to make a careful examination of all the material at my disposal and think out the different points before I come to give a complete account of it. This will take some time as we are so short handed at present but I hope to be able to lay before His Excellency a full medical report of the outbreak in the course of the next month or so.

It would be useless in this short report to write the Sanitary History of Hong Kong.

I will at once describe the present Epidemic.

From Canton since the middle of March there have been rumours of an epidemic in nature which has been depopulating certain quarters of the city. On 20 April
