The Honourable
The Acting Captain Superintendent of
Police.
Sir,
Re accident to my left foot on duty, I
have the honour to report that at 12.30 A.M. on 7th. September
an alarm of fire was received from Government Civil Hospital.
I turned out with the men and gear, but found the call was a
false one. I returned in a Jinricksha; in front of No. 5 Station
the Coolie stumbled. I jumped out and landed on the forepart of
my left foot. I felt a severe pain there at once but could walk.
Chief Inspector Baker and Sergeant Perkins were quite near me.
I told Sergeant Perkins I had hurt my foot. I used the usual
remedies for a strain but the pain got worse; on the 10th. I
went to Government Civil Hospital. Dr. Bell examined the foot
and gave me note stating I had strained the tendons, and pres-
cribed treatment. I got leave from Ag. Dep.Supt. of Police. The
foot got worse and I went to Hospital on the 15th. September
where I underwent an operation on the 25th. October losing 4
toss.
I have etc.,
(Sa.) Angus McSwayed,
Acting Assistant Engineer,
Fire Brigade.
