For the information of the Parishioners, I may mention
that a hospital carriage for removing persons suffering from
infectious diseases (including Diphtheria) is kept at the
Workhouse in Wallis's Yard, Buckingham Palace Road,
and that the ambulance belonging to the Metropolitan
Asylums Board is kept at Seagrave Road, Fulham; but
those who are in a position to bear the expenses of their
support should apply at the London Fever Hospital,
Liverpool Road, Islington; (or, in case of Small-pox, at the
Highgate Small-pox Hospital), where they can be accommodated
on favourable terms.Also that a refuge has been
provided at No. 1, Pimlieo Road, for the use of persons
during the disinfection of their rooms.
I have the honour to be,
My Lords and Gentlemen,
Your obedient Servant,
W. H. CORFIELD.
19, Savile Row, London, W.,
