TUBERCULOSIS DISPENSARY.
The arrangement whereby the Dispensary is provided
by the Governors of the City of London Hospital
for Diseases of the Chest continued in force throughout
the year.
Dr. G. T. Hebert was in charge of both Hackney
and Bethnal Green patients at the commencement of
the year, but later on he was entirely in charge of
Bethnal Green patients.
