12 were unknown. In the province itself the districts of Sylhet, Sibsagar, Darning
*nd Cachar were responsible for the largest number of patients, viz,, 12, 11, 9 and 7,
respectively. It is a matter for consideration whether recently imported coolies should

have been made during the year under review.
The maximum number confined on any one night during the year under report
was 332 males and 79 females, or a total of 411. The overcrowding is relieved by
converting a godown into a barrack when needed. Government has sanctioned the
construction of a ward for 26 male inmates and a ward for 16 filthy patients, which
will probably be well in hand by the 31st March 1920.

General of Civil Hospitals, Assam, and once by the Com-
missioner of the Assam Valley Districts. Twelve meetings were held by the visitors
