SIR Your Sanitary Committee, tC
whom was referred petitions Nos. 39l ant
1872 relating to the retention of Siste
Rose Gertrude at the Kalihi Receivin!
Station, beg leave to report that the,
have given the matter careful considera
ton, and they would respectfully repre-
sent thew consider that to take action IL
the matter to accomplish the desired enc
would be subversive of the dignity of thu
House, and would be besides an unwar
rantable interference in the business o
the Board of Health, separate bureau
and one which cannot be justly inter
fered with in matters of this nature, viz.
the employment, retention or discharg
of persons connected directly with tn
bureau as employees.
Your committee would state further
that they find the lady mentione
resigned from the position occupie
by her of her own free will and &C
cord, and no presentation has been mad
to your committee to show that Siste
Gertrude has any desire to be retaine
or reinstated.
Your committee would, therefore, res
pectfully recommend that the petition
Nos. 39l and 1892 be referred to the Mir
lister of Interior for presentation to tn
Board of Health.
Respectfully submitted,
, JOHN PHILLIPS,
A. p. PAEHAOLE,
J. MARsDEN.

remain, one of which was the retentio
of Sister Rose as nurse.
