10. It has been usual in this report to give the localities of the cases of
cholera admitted into the hospitals of Calcutta, and as a statement with this
object has been prepared, I insert it, though I shall not again do so, seeing
that the information is incomplete, and that correct information as to the
localities of all cases of cholera can be obtained from the annual report of
the Health Officer of Calcutta, from whose Table XIII the following statement
has been complied:—
