T.. RAPHAEL.
Chairman.
, 1884-08-27

A far more serious matter discussed at
the sane meeting related to that deep
stain on our islands story, the fearful
infant mortality, which we all feel so sad
about but seem so pOwerless to prevent.
Mr.. Raphael asked if the duties of the
newly appointed midwiveS were restricted
to their proper professional duties and the
care OF the infants during the first week or
two of their lives, for if it were so he had
not much hope of any good beirg done, the
mortality being, so far as he had learned,
not at birth or III the first few weeks, but:
afterwards during the first year. or two OF
life. He further remarked that he was not
able TO see how the nine midwives would
make a living, as it does not appear that
the labOureIs pay the fees due for their
Strvices
The Governor replied that provision was
made for the oversight of the children by
the midwives during the first years of their
life, as he had no doubt would be explain.
ed by a member more cOnversant with this
matter than he (the Governor) was. HS
did not doubt that the midwives found it
difficult to collect their fees, an ordinance
regulating the whole matter would later
be brought forward in which some provi.
sion would be made also in this regard.
Dr.. KGtmer said he was glad the ques--
ton had been asked. IF the midwives
were only to look after the births and toe
attend the children during the irst.few-
days he would have. hesitated to. urge the
adoption Of these measures. The loss was
not at birth, nor during the first days nor
even the first two months of life, but after :
that and it was due first to the gross.
ignorance winch prevailed az to the proper
, 1884-08-27

The chief business trans acted was The
disposal Of the Budget for 1884.85 with Ito
several amendments and Notifications.
The Chairman said that he would give the
final results Of these latter ON the totals &C
the next meeting. 49,.
The second discussion Of the question Of
the Bulowsminde road took place, and it
was decided to agree with the Govern.
ments proposal that it should be struck
off the list of public roads, the owner
having, as His Excellency said. every hand.
sOmrly" admitted at once that there was
no objection to this course.
The Report of the Committee appointed
to examine the Communal accounts for
1912 was received and adopted by the
Council.
Among the subjects incidently discussed
during the progress of the Budget discus.
sion on Monday was the question of the
morning and evening gun. Councillor
Faber opened up the matter by saying that
it seemed as if the practice of firing the
gun at 3 o'clock in the evening in Chris.
tiansted, which had been given up, but
reintrOducrd on account of the town clock
being sent away for repairs, was likely to
DV7 OOHCIHuC'lS anu III 80 CUCF6 were nHlly
persons in FredrrikStsd who would like to
Sc it Introduced again into that town also.
1t had formerly proved particularly useful
in regard to the closing of the rumshops at
the right time, as we'll as in other
ways.
The Governor said that it had been
intended to stop the gun as soon as the
clock was in order. AS the rumshops we're
closed precisely on the gun firing he
admitted that was a useful result, he
would also admit that the expense was not
great and would admit the reasonable
claim of Frederiksted. If it should appear
that the Council and the population wish
the firing of the gun to be continued
the matter should have his consideration.
His Excellrncy mentioned later that the
cost TT firing one gun once a day was about
'25 a year. Several members then gave
their opinions, mostly in favour Of the gun,
some also expressing a wish to rave the
morning gun restored. Capt. Willard,
while stating that he had no personal
feeling ill the matter and would not oppose
the gun firing, if generally wished, said
that he believed it WAS q relic of slavery
times and that the evening gun was fred
to indicate to the slaves that it was time
for them to retire. Other members argued
that the question of origin was not imp0r.
tant, bu5 only whether the gun was now
useful. Mr. Raphael pleaded also for q
morning and evening gun at Kings
Hill.
We fancy that most people liked the
morning and evening gun, without per-
hlpS being able to give a very distinct
reason for their liking, and we think that
If a pteblScite were taken OH the question
