soda which could be relied on to keep rabbit's blood permanently liquid. It
was found that when the citrate was present in the proportion of 1 in 150, clotting
sometimes occurred and sometimes did not, and when in the proportion of 1 in
100, the blood always remained fluid for an indefinite time.

DETACHMENT 11TH REGIMENT NATIVE INFANTRY.
BOMBAY.—In Medical charge of Surgeon H. WAKEFIELD; Strength 158.
Average strength of the detachment during the past year was 158.3.
Admissions 140. Of these 122 were discharged as cured. Eleven were allowed sick
certificate. Four re-admitted for other diseases. Four were invalided. The daily average of
sick 5.9. One death during the year.
The detachment of H. M.'s 11th Regiment Native Infantry has been under my charge
since the 26th of September, and left in November for Poona and returned in December.
Nothing worthy of special notice has occurred. The European Officer Commanding pro-
ceeded on sick certificate. The havildar died of bronchitis ; he had been thirty years in the
service, and was old and worn out. The detachment was removed from their old lines adjoin-
ing the 19th Regiment's lines on account of the unhealthy situation.
H. M.'s 19TH REGIMENT NATIVE INFANTRY.
BOMBAY.—In Medical charge of Surgeon WAKEFIELD ; Strength 630.
Average strength of the regiment during the past year was 630. Admissions 667 ; of
these 627 were discharged as cured, twenty-three were allowed sick certificate, six re-ad-
mitted for other diseases, twenty-five were invalided, the daily average of sick, 2.06, six
deaths during the year, the admissions were less by 206. One hundred and ninety-eight ad-
missions were on account of fever, of these four died. They were mostly men of weakly
constitution, and would not, as Purdessees, submit to any proper or strengthening diet.
Hypodermic injection of quinine was tried very frequently ; in some cases it seemed to
act most beneficially, but in others it had no marked benefit over the ordinary way of adminis-
tering quinine. Several cases remained in hospital for a long time, showing but gradual
improvement with frequent relapses, to be attributed to the impure state of the atmosphere
surrounding the hospital and neighbourhood ; patients frequently suffered from diarrhœa and
vomiting, when the stench from Sonapoor drain was intense, and the wind blowing direct.
Small-pox first showed itself in the beginning of the year, and lasted on till August.
Twenty-five cases were admitted, including women and children, two cases proved fatal. On
the appearance of this epidemic, the men were ordered under canvas, and there remained
till 11th of March. In the meantime the lines had been thoroughly cleaned ; the cases were
treated in the pendals given over for that purpose. Measles and chicken-pox were also
prevalent at the same time as the above—two children of about a month old succumbed.
Twenty-two cases of mumps contributed to the number of admissions.

RIGHT WING H. M.'s 15TH REGIMENT NATIVE INFANTRY.
TANNA.—In Medical Charge of Surgeon H. ATKINS; Strength 295.
The Right Wing of the 15th Regiment N. I., arrived here from Mehidpore on the 10th
January 1872, after 19 days' march.
The strength is 295 sepoys and 2 European officers. During the month of August the
wing was increased by 60 men, (on account of the number of sepoys on the sick list suffering
from dengue,) who left again on the 29th November.
The following table shows the average yearly strengths of fighting men in the wing:—

As anticipated by the late Medical Superintendent, Deputy Inspector-General Turner, in
his Annual Report for 1871, the sickness during the past year con
-trasts very favourably with that of the preceding year, as shown in the
following statement, but the improvement is not due to the men being more acclimatized.
When the regiment arrived at Aden, the men were decidedly much below par, having been
employed on hard labour—building lines at Belgaum—and being in debt were unable to in-
crease their ordinary diet which, though sufficient for the performance of routine duty, was
quite inadequate for hard labour. Again, ague and dengue were epidemic during 1871 ; where--
as during the year under review, these diseases only existed to a slight extent, and debt and
hard work were almost unknown. Although the actual sickness is not excessive, still the
general health of natives of India gradually deteriorates during a residence at Aden.

The very great decrease in the number of admissions and the comparatively high average

in nature. In the following statement, the admissions to hospital

As might have been expected a great decrease took place in the cases of ague, dengue
and rheumatic affections. The absence of a single case of primary syphilis is highly satisfac
-tory; and the almost entire absence of the disease in a constitutional form, is partially ac
- c o u n t e d f o r b y a f e w o f t h e c h r o n i c c a s e s h a v i n g b e e n i n v a l i d e d i n 1 8 7 1 .
The diseases for which an increase in the number of admissions took place, were febricula,
scurvy, common colds, and slight local injuries, such as shoe-bites. The scurvycases treated
during 1872,numbered 76, and, as was the case during the preceding year, many of the at
-tacks weresevere and persistent. Cases of debility, to a great extent due to the climate of
Aden, were again numerous.
Of the men stationed at head-quarters and at the isthmus, 295 were never admitted to
hospital; 218 were admitted once, 59 twice, 17 thrice, and 3 four times—the number of men
actually treated in hospital, being 297.
Excluding the time spent by eleven men on sick leave, the number of days lost to the service
by illness per head on the average yearly strength was 13 days
—scurvy was the cause of the greatest loss—four days per head, or thrice
that caused by any other disease; and then followed debility, rheuma
-
tism, bronchitis, leprosy, &c., &c.
Eleven men were granted sick leave to India—all suffered from scurvy; and the average
period passed in hospital by each was 3 months, the longest 11
months, and the shortest 1 month. Had these cases occurred in
India, the men would not have been kept so long in hospital, but at Aden it is different, as

Besides the ordinary uniform, the men are provided with loose serge coats, a great im
-provement on the tunic, and during the hot season, white clothing was worn. The boots,
however well looked after, are simply instruments of torture on the march, especially, in the
case of men with a scorbutic taint.
Vaccination.
The primary vaccination during the year, were 34 in number,
being 1 more than the number vaccinated in 1871.
Since the regiment arrived at Aden, 360 sepoys of all ages taken indiscriminately have
been re-vaccinated. The following shows the result of the operation during 1872:—

In each instance four insertions were made. Of the 15 successful cases previously pro

marks were indistinct; eight men had middling vesicles, averaging 2½ to each—the old marks
in one case also being indistinct; and in the remaining four cases the vesicles, 13 in number,
were bad.
Of the 16 successful cases previously protected by small-pox, the vesicles were good in
seven instances, middling in six, and bad in the remaining three cases. The old marks were
indistinct in three of the cases with good vesicles, in two with middling, and in two of the
cases with bad vesicles.
In all the successful cases after inoculations the old marks were distinct, and vesicles on
re-vaccination were good in four cases, the number of vesicles being eleven; in two instances
the vesicles, 5 in number, were middling, and in the remaining case the vesicles, 2 in number,
were bad.
In many of the unsuccessful cases small acuminated papillae and considerable inflamma
-tion were observed on the eighth day after the operation.

Neither hospital nor hospital establishment being required the men are treated in the
hospital of the native regiment.
The lines of wattle and daub have been repaired, and much improved since last report.
The sanitary arrangements are good, with the exception of the bathing places which simply
consist of shallow pits, covered with loose stones in or close to the houses. The water perco

suggestion of the Deputy Inspector General of Hospitals, it has been resolved to do away with
the pits and substitute surface drains.
One latrine in the immediate vicinity of the lines, serves as latrine and urinal for men,
women, and children. It is said to be on the Turkish system, a deep pit for the reception
and accumulation of excreta, &c., with a central shaft to carry off the foul air. It is nicely
covered, and well built with seats in a circle, separated by partitions. A cart load of dry
earth is used about twice a week as a deodorant, and during the past two years the system
has answered remarkably well, the latrine invariably being the least obnoxious in Aden.
In addition to the ordinary clothing, all the men are provided with white clothing for
use during the hot season.
The duties of the men have been light, as their services have greatly to their regret sel
-dom been required for public works.
The men are supplied with water and rations in the same quantity and of the same
quality as the sepoys of the native regiment; and, so far as I am aware, they have never made
any complaint on the subject.
Only two men were brought before medical boards for the purpose of obtaining sick
