4. During the year, the following officers were either absent on or returned
from leave : Major Pease, Captain Baldrey, Captain Walker, Doctor Lingard,
Major Raymond and Mr. Rennie.
5. Captain J. D. E. Holmes was deputed to England for a course of training
in Bacteriology from 18th September 1904, and Major H. T. Pease was detailed
on special duty in the United Provinces and Punjab for 3 months to investigate
"Dourine".
6. The staff of Imperial Officers has received a small addition by the ap-
pointment of two new men from home. Mr. R. E. Montgomery, who has been
temporarily posted as Assistant Pacteriologist at Muktesar, and Mr. M. H.
Sowerby to the Punjab for training. The strength of the cadre has thus been
brought up to 22 (including the Imperial Bacteriologist) which is still far below
requirements.

this it will be seen that there were six of these institutions working during the
year. Of these, Bombay, Bengal and Madras were teaching up to the graduate
course in English and the Punjab up to the same standard in Urdu. In addition
to this, Bombay had a salutri course of two years as had also Ajmer, and
Burma had a special vernacular course.
