" In. consequence of the numerous claims from
private practitioners for medical attendance upon
soldiers labouring under chronic diseases who are
employed on recruiting service and other duties
away froM their regiments; the General Command-
ing-in-Chief desires that every soldier 'shall be sub-
jected to a careful medical examination on the day
before. or the day on which he leaves his regiment
or depot for detached duty of any kind. His Royal
Highness like Wise desiies that before granting sick
furloughs commanding officers will obtain from
medical officers a:distinctopinion as to whether the
casts arc likely to be benefited by the removal of
the patients to another locality ; and further, that
they will take steps_ for ascertaining that:the men's
friends are in a. situation to afford them such aid as
the nature of their 'ailments .may require. Much
needless suffering must result if .soldiers.labotiring
under chronic diseases are allowed to visit friends
who are unable to provide them with the necessary
atcominodation and' comforts. • : •-•
