H. M. CANNON M. B.,
Deputy Surgeon General, Indian Medical Service,
Lucknow Circle.
REPORT ON DISPENSARIES
IN THE
PROVINCE OF OUDH,
FOR THE YEAR 1874
LUCKNOW :—Printed at the OUDH GOVERNMENT PRESS.
No. 2830.
FROM
THE OFFG. SECY. TO THE CHIEF COMMISSIONER,
OUDH,
To
THE DEPUTY SURGEON GENERAL
INDIAN MEDICAL DEPARTMENT.
Dated Lucknow, the 15th June 1875.
GENERAL DEPARTMENT.
SIR,
I am directed to acknowledge the receipt of your letter No, 572/CC dated
the 17th April, reporting on the working of the several hospitals and
charitable dispensaries in Oudh during the year 1874.
2. Your own report this year is brief, consisting of 21 paragraphs;
but with it you have submitted an appendix of 386 paragraphs, containing
extracts from your own inspection reports and from the annual reports of
the civil medical officers, and some general remarks. The Officiating Chief
Commissioner does not altogether approve of this plan. It is not always
easy to see whether the remarks are yours or the Civil Surgeon's, and a
good deal of unnecessary matter has been printed. To take, for example,
the Lucknow Lunatic Asylum; paras. 17, 18, 19, 21,22, 23, 24, and
part of 26, are not wanted. With regard to paras. 17, 18, and 19, it is
unnecessary in an annual report to state on what day you visited the
asylum, or to record the number of inmates and state of clothing on that
particular date. The same remarks apply to paras. 21, 22, 23, 24, and
part of 26, with even greater force, for in a report regarding the year 1874,
there is no object to be gained by stating that there were 140 lunatics on
the 12th January 1875.
Paras 7 to 10
3. The Officiating Chief Commissioner notes that considerable im-
provement is shown in the progress of the medical pupils. You think
that much may still be done, and civil medical officers will, no doubt.
endeavour to carry out your instructions.
Para 13.
Para 15.
4. Four new Branch Dispensaries were opened during the year, and
though the number of persons treated increased by 19,256, the number
of ascertained deaths fell by 380, the figures being 1,075 in 1873, and 695
in the year under review. These last statistics are of little value, for there
is no trustworthy record showing deaths of out-door patients. Turning
to the various statements, the Officiating Chief Commissioner finds that of
the out-door patients attending the Balrámpur Hospital, 40 are said to have
died (and this appears to be a mistake, vide para. 12). In the returns for
the Sadr Dispensaries of Sitapur, Hardoi, and Gonda, out-door are not
distinguished from in-door patients. Of the out-door patients who visited
the Sadr Dispensaries of Unao, Sultanpur, and Partabgarh, seven are said
to have died; while of those who attended the King's Hospital and the
remaining live Sadr Dispensaries, not a single death has been recorded.
( 2 )
Para 16.
5. A reference to pavas. 88 and 105 of your notes will show that
these papers do not always show how many of the capital operations
proved successful.
Para 17.
6. In the matter of accounts there is a considerable difference be-
tween the opening balance of 1874 and the closing balance of 1873, as will
be seen from the following figures, which are taken from the returns No. 1
for 1873 and 1874 :—

7. Doctor Bonavia's report appears to have been given at length.
It seems somewhat odd that of 14 students Syud Abid Hossein who,
with one exception, was the most irregular in attendance at lectures,
should obtain the prize for regularity of attendance.
Para 10.
There were doubtless good reasons for taking back a student who had
been dismissed for insubordination, but, as far as discipline is concerned, the
precedent seems a dangerous one. On the whole, this school is going on
satisfactorily.
Para 18.
8. You refer to the death rate at the Lucknow Lunatic Asylum as
having been " reduced from 30 per cent in June 1873.'' This is a mistake,
as the death rate during the whole year 1873 was 16.14 per cent of the
daily average strength. You probably meant to refer to the year 1872, in
which the percentage was 30.43 on the total number treated. The word
" June" is apparently an error, as it does not occur in your letter No. 301,
dated the 8th December 1874, from which paras. 18—20 of your report are
an extract.
9. You do not give the usual comparative statement, but the Officiat-
ing Chief Commissioner having called for the Superintendent's report
finds the figures to be these :- -
