PROCEEDINGS OF

Colonial Council
FOR ST. CROIN.
FOR ST. CEOIN.

<ConcIusJon Of the meeting Of 3l~t january
.I2) According to the foregoing statements
It IS supposed that there may be rechoncd on
an amount Of $3.50 from the Colonial Treasu-
ry and $1,000 from the contribution from the
I~aborers, altogether Sl3,250, for defraying the
future salaries to public physicians in the Island j;
that sum apportioned equally amang the 6 ply
sicians would give about 81, 200 for each. If
to this be added the income derived from private
practice ii each of the towns, with respectively
5,400 and 3,400 inhabitants, and from attendance
tothe state-proprietors, managers, oyerseers and
others in the Country (besides, in the case of
the Landsphysician and tie eventual public
Physician in Frederiksted, the fees which they
vii! be having for bills of health, etc), it may
well be expected that such a number Of medi-
cal men would be able to make a livelihood
here. a smaller number would not suffice, es-
pecially when it be borne in mind, that one or
other of them will at times be absent on
voyages to colder climates.

while hunting 10 the neighborhood of the
Michael Lynch settlement, in the lower
part Of Pennington. received the charges
of double barrel shot gun from some

some hunter mi.took him for deer
and firel at him, and when he heard
the wounded mans cry. instead Of com
ing to his relief, as human being should
Iun away like a c"wardIy thief. The
Frenchman was badly hurt. one buck
shot striking bis arm and three lodging
in his thigh and Zip. Our informant
