Appendix IV.

(Acting Colonial Surgeon to Colonial Secretary.)

GOVERNMENT CIVIL. HOSPITAL,

HONGKONG, 20th August, 1895.

SIR,

I have the honour to report that on my daily visit to the Tung Wa Hospital on the 18th instant, I found a man barricaded in one of the cells above the mortuary.

It appears that this patient was admitted on the previous day and as he seemed to be mad he was fastened up in this cell.

This is contrary to all instructions; if the man was insane he should have been at once sent to the Government Chinese Lunatic Asylum; if he was not mad he should have been kept in the Receiving Ward until my visit the next day.

I was not even informed on the 18th that the case had been admitted, and had I not inspected every ward of that institution that day he would probably have been. under restraint still.

I also request instructions how to deal in future with severe surgical cases admitted to this Institution.

I understood that I had authority to transfer all such cases to the Government Civil Hospital, but from a letter which I enclose and which was handed to me by the Chairman of that institution on my visit yesterday, it appears that there is some mis- understanding on this subject.

On the 17th, I ordered two cases, one of fracture of both bones of the forearm and other surgical injuries, and the other suffering from a large gluteal abscess which required immediate operation, to be transferred to the Government Civil Hospital.
