manifested ITSELF
Tenth That there is proper medical officer to attend 70
cases OF premonoy darrhGa cholera, either in the docks
or on the river and of such dahGa may any time
pass into cholera aud the disease appear to have broken out
in the port, whereas may only have been the result of the
neglect Of the premontory symptoms with which the
may have arrived.
Eleventh. That appears extremely important that in the
present critical state Of the disease competent medical
men should be appointed visit all crews on their arrival from
cholera pors IN order to put stop cholera by cutting
It's premontory symptoms whenever present
Twelfth That considering the history Of the cases on board
the Pas IN all their bearings, they appear to afford very
strong evidence against the doctrine Of conapon in this
disease.
Thirteenth That the relaxation Of the quarantine which
has just been made will be Of service IL accompanied by the
appointment Of temporary medical superintendent ares
dy advised.
Fourteenth That, considering the close communication
which exists between Hull and Hamburg, and the progress
Of the disease westward would be very advisable at once to
put the nuances removal and contagious diseases prevention
act IN force, and TO organize local board Of health
Fifteenth That the board should be constituted of mem
bers Of the town council and Of poor law guardians both OF
Hull which is not under the poor law commissioners and Of
Scucoaes, which under them The districts form in
reality town, and unity Of action would be very advisable
and due proportion Of medical practitioners injispens ,b
SIthieenth That the Scucoaes Union contains two work
houses where accommodation might be obtained for cholera
cases. and another temporary hospital might be obtained in
some intervening point Of the district
Seventeenth That the Hull workhouse is quite unsui,ed
for such purpose. II stands in Of the principal streets
has back entrance badly Drained the wards are low and
badly lighted, and the Ventilation offensive.
Eighteenth That adequate number OF dspensares FOR
treating the premontory stage ought be established il the
disease should make It's Appearance.
Nineteenth That apart from the desrabeness Of treating
cholera at home far practicable there very great
evils attending the opening Of special cholera hospitals one
class Of these believe fairly illustrated In the evidence
Of Mr. Hardy, who is experienced practitioner Any such
provision tina, may be necessary ought be so placed and
conducted under such arrangements avoid exciting alarm
and injuring public feeling
Lastly. That although opinion, from examination sub
equcnty made has induced bceve that the which
have occurred, both in the town Of Hull and board the
Pala have closer relation TO the Asatic cholera
than we at first considered them 10 have, beg repeat
our former conclusion, that there is nothing that would lead
us TO expect special outbreak o cholera Hull more than
