(g) Places of refuge for persons not actually sick, whom it
might be right to keep under observation, or to accommodate
while their houses were either under disinfectionor
were devoted to sick persons who could not properly
be removed.
The suggestions I would make are as follows:—
(а)
(b) Division of District.
Four sub-divisions—
1. All Bow (South of Great Eastern Railway).
2. That part between Great Eastern Railway and Old Ford
Road.
3. That part bounded South by Old Ford Road; North by
Duckett's Canal; East by North London Railway.
4. That part bounded West by North London Railway; North-
East by boundary of the District; South by the Sewer
Embankment.
(c) Medical visitors for poorer houses, to discover cases of
cholera and diarrhœa.
[Thinking that senior Medical Students would be the best
and most available medical visitors, I wrote to the Secretary
of the London Hospital on the subject, and the
matter is under consideration. I think 8 would be
sufficient; it would be their duty to report cases to the
Medical Officer in charge of their district].
(d) Medical Attendance.
I have asked the following medical men if they would
take medical charge of part of the district, and they
have consented.
District No. 1. Dr. Wallace, Bow Road.
,, 2. Dr. Bennett Tredegar Road.
Dr. Roberts
Dr. Thornton, St. Stephens Road.
