REMARKS.
This case became free from fever on June 26th, but he continued to excrete bacilli in his urine up to the
end of August. He never discharged any bacilli in his fæces. This case illustrates the markedly intermit-
tent character of the excretion of B. typhosus in urine and emphasises the importance of repeated examina-
tions before declaring a patient bacilli free. He has not excreted any bacilli during September or October.
As in the previous case urotropine had no effect in permanently checking the bacilluria.

REMARKS.
This case shows that the excretion of bacilli in the fæces may be very intermittent. B. typhosus was
detected in the fæces on August 6th, after this an examination of the fæces was made almost daily with
negative results until October 21st, when the bacilli were again detected in the fæces. The fæces remained
free from bacilli for nearly two months. This case at one time excreted B. typhosus in enormous
numbers in his urine.

REMARKS.
This man was followed throughout the acute phase of the disease and for several months after con
-
valescence had commenced. It will be seen that his urine contained enormous numbers of bacilli during
convalescence. The excretion of bacilli in the urine has ceased in the meantime, but it still continues in
the fæces. To return this man to duty would be dangerous, accordingly when the Senior Medical Officer,
Kasauli, asked if he was free from infection, we replied that he was still excreting bacilli in his fæces and
should be retained for a further period.

REMARKS.
This case presents several features of interest. The patient was admitted to hospital at Kasauli with ano
-
malous symptoms, vide page 31 of this report. A bacteriological examination of the blood, urine and fæces
showed that he was suffering from an infection caused by B. paratyphosus A., but his Widal reaction was
positive in high dilution to B. typhosus, but not to B. paratyphosus A., although the latter was cultivated
from his blood and fæces. This was clearly explained at a later date. He began to excrete B. typhosus in
his fæces late in convalescence. The case, therefore, was one of double infection. This man might have
been a "chronic bacilli carrier " of B. typhosus and had an infection with B. paratyphosus A. grafted on.
