Sanitary Report, 1893.

can only be an estimate as the food was all from
the one supply. I also estimate the expense for
three-and-a-half weeks in December at £8 7s. 6d.,
but there was no outlay in providing furniture,
making a total cost of £110 7s. 6d. I anticipate
the cost of the patients at the Small Pox Hospital
at Highgate will not be less than £125.
The average cost of each patient per week
for Medical Attendance, Staff, and £ s. d.
Maintenance was 0 15 2
The Charge at Hendon was l 11 6
And at Highgate 2 9 0
In conclusion, I desire to express my approval
of the way in which the Nurses have performed
their duties. Mrs. Murlagh, as the Acting Matron,
has always endeavoured to carry on the management
with economy.
I have the honour to be,
Gentlemen,
Your obedient Servant.
D. S. SKINNER,
Medical Superintendent.
