(2) well No. 21 near the old Persian barracks; (3) the well opposite No. 1 barrack,
Royal Artillery, and that (4) near the Station Hospital.
Some of the wells in the Native Infantry lines in this station are very bad.
For example, well No, 121 contained as much as 371 7 grains of total solids and
92 12 grains of chlorine per gallon, whilst the water from the river near the Sadar
Bázár only contained 31 5 grains of total solids and 4 8 grains of chlorine per
gallon. The ammonia determinations in the sample from the river were, however,
higher, and render it a very unsafe water to drink :—
