the number of admissions from fever ; secondly, to the admission of the sick arrived with the
detachment from Indore. The means adopted have been already mentioned in the monthly
report.
They were emptying the hospital as much as possible by pitching tents for the reception
of the cases of ulcer, and the free use of disinfectants.
The patients suffering from sloughing ulcer were allowed full rations of meat arrack, &c.
Three cases have recovered. The fourth remains under treatment, and does not, I regret
to say, make any favourable progress. The other cases having been reported in the monthly
returns do not call for a repetition of the remarks,
The regimental lines are built of sun-dried bricks and are tiled. There is no overcrowd
ing. Owing to the materials of which they are constructed, the walls
occasionally fall in the wet weather. Huts are easily repaired.
This I consider to be good. The conservancy arrangements are adapted to both the
rainy and dry seasons. In the rains the Dry-earth conservancy is
carried on in latrine buildings, of which there are two for men and one
for women. In the dry season the Trench system is in vogue.
Both latrines are to the north of the lines and generally to leeward of them.
State of lines and sub
-sidiary buildings.
Sanitary condition and
conservancy.
State of hospital and
buildings.
The hospital is a pucka built building, with ventilators in the
roof, which is arched and covered with chunam on the outside.
The accommodation is insufficient. The floor is of chunam which is a great drawback,
as it cannot be either "leeped" or cow-dunged, much dust is the consequence. It is also
expensive and very tedious to repair.
There is no ward for either ophthalmic or contagious diseases, no guard-room and the
accommodation for the subordinate medical department is insufficient. A deadhouse is also
required.
These deficiencies have been annually pointed out for some years past, and I believe
that steps will be taken to remedy the principal deficiences. The latrine is in rear of the
hospital and carried on with the Dry-earth system.
Water-supply is good and sufficient from three wells ; the quality
of the water is unknown to me.

In the 4th Rifles all the European officers, 8 in number, with one exception were attacked
sooner or later, and two ladies out of 4 were affected, but the children, 4 in number, escaped.
Admissions into hospital from all causes numbered 1,305: these with the remainder 16
gave a grand total of 1,321 under treatment; there was one death during the year from
asthma. The deceased was never a robust man, and he appears to have suffered much from the
malady complicated with bronchitis before coming into hospital. Expectorants and stimulants
were freely given but with transient benefit. Emetics and datura tatula seemed to do most
good. Death at last was sudden and unexpected.
Ague and dengue combined furnished the list with 1,025 patients, the remaining 296 com

and 18 and 20, respectively, on account of dysentery and diarrhœa. Of the 19 abscesses under
treatment, a severe one, most probably caused by caries of one of the vertebrae, was admitted in
June. Matter entered the thigh and penetrated below the poplital space, the parts were laid
freely open, but not in time to save their vitality. The parts sloughed and healthy action was
established, but purulent deposits kept forming, which called for the inteference of the knife
from time to time. At first the rectum was supposed to be involved, but careful examination
could detect nothing wrong. Two new sinuses exist but they do not communicate. These
had stimulating washes injected and the walls were brought together by bandaging. The

H. M.'s 27TH REGIMENT N.L.I.
KURRACHEE.—In Medical Charge of Assistant Surgeon W. NOLAN, M.D; Strength 668.
H. M.'s 1st Belooch Regiment was stationed at Kurrachee during the year 1872.
The health of the regiment during this period, if the epidemic of dengue be left out of
consideration, was on the whole good, the number of admissions from all causes having been
573 against 460, 501, 667, 749 and 495 in the five preceding years, but, by the addition of
the admissions from dengue, the total number reaches to 985.
The principal diseases in point of frequency are as follows:—Dengue 412, ague 192,
contusions 71, bronchitis 49, venereal affections 47, conjunctivitis 27, colic 20, dysentery 15,
and diarrhœa 13.
Dengue fever appeared on the 9th of September; 71 patients being admitted during
that month under this head, 276 in October, 63 in November, and 2 in December.
The disease had been prevailing in the city of Kurrachee for nearly two months, before
the first case presented itself in the hospital. Communication between the regiment and the
people of the city was prevented as much as possible, but it does not appear that quarantine
was of any avail in keeping the dengue away. From sixty-eight cases selected as being good
examples of dengue, it was noted that the following symptoms presented themselves in order
of frequency. Increased pulse, respiration and temperature, lasting for from four to five days,
were present in 68 cases; severe pain in the forehead, lasting 2 days in 66; pain in the joints
in 61; burning sensation in the skin in 63; congestion of the eyes in 40; pink colored erup
-tion, usually appearing on the third day of the fever, in 40; itching and tingling of the palmar
and plantar surfaces of the hands and feet in 21; sorethroat in 15; enlarged lymphatics in 11;
swelling of the joints in 3; swelling of the face in 2; relapses after ten or eleven days in 3;
average duration of disease 6 days. A scale showing the correlation of temperature, pulse, and
respiration, was kept in almost every case, and a specimen one will delineate clearly the ordin
-ary course of the fever:—
In several of the most severe cases the urine was tested for albumen on each successive
day of the fever with negative results.
The treatment consisted for the most part in the administration of antacid aperients,
purgatives, when indicated, and fomentation to painful joints. Hydrate of chloral was tried
in some cases, and a few patients under its influence slept through the fever, experiencing
little or no inconvenience from it.
In about thirty cases rheumatic pain in the joints lasted for four or five weeks, but these
were at length dispelled principally by friction of the affected parts.
165
SIND DISTRICT OF THE ARMY.
The unusual amount of sickness in Haidarabad this year, is most probably attributable
in part to this excess of rainfall (which was much above the average), causing a larger surface
of marshy ground for the sun to act upon, and, consequently, a greater amount of malarious
exhalations than would be engendered by the inundation alone.

The sea-breeze which prevails here during the summer months, tempers the heat, which
otherwise would be almost unbearable for about four or five months in the year; occasionally
the breeze ceases for a short time (three or four days usually), sometimes giving place to the
land-wind which brings with it clouds of dust; this wind is hot and very trying, giving rise
frequently to headaches, feverish symptoms, &c.

the regiment; this useful and harmless recreation the men look upon as one of their chief
sources of amusement. Sports of various kinds are resorted to, and often nearly the whole
regiment may be seen at the gymnasium, either looking on or engaged in the exercise
wrestling is a common amusement with them, and there are many skilled athletes amongst
them, several of whom are able to perform remarkably well upon the trapeze, parallel and
horizontal bars, &c.

The number of admissions into hospital for the year ending 1872 have been 931 and
the mortality 19. Comparing this with the preceding year's return it shows a slight diminu

There is nothing particular to note in regard to the fatal cases of pneumonia, death occur
-ring from five clays to fifteen hours after the disease revealed itself.
Of the other deaths I need only mention the one occurring from rupture of the spleen.
The patient, aged 18—a trumpeter—a delicate looking boy—pale and emaciated—was thrown
from his horse on parade; when on the ground his horse rolled over him: after a few minutes he
got up and complained of a pain in his stomach, but from the symptoms and appearance I had
no doubt the case was one of internal hæmorrhage. He died an hour after the receipt of the
injury, and on making a post mortem examination I found in the peritonial cavity about 80
ozs. of venous blood—liver, stomach, kidneys, heart, and lungs were sound. On removing the
spleen it was found large, very dark, and easily broken down, the structure being very soft.
An extensive triangular rupture was found occupying its whole length, and on weighing it as
it was, perfectly bloodless, it was found to be 2 lbs. 12 ozs. and half.
The total number of admissions for the past year were 640: 394 of which were cases of
fever intermittent, the above numbers showing the men of the regiment to be in a more
unhealthy condition than they have been for years.

Fever of an intermittent type was the prevailing disease throughout the year, next in
frequency boils and ulcers. No epidemic.
The thermometer showed a maximum of 104° and minimum 38.°R
ainfall during the year was 9 inches and 8 cents, the usual rainfall being about two
inches. It fell in January, February, March, April, July, August, and September: after the
rain in August and September the hospital became full with fever cases.
Indus water got in here on the 19th of May, and the banks of the canals overflowed on
the 20th of July. The floods this year were higher than they have been known before, the
camp for a considerable time being in absolute danger of being washed away; and, as it was; a
considerable amount of injury was done to the Rifle family lines. The water was kept out of
camp with the greatest difficulty.
