w., set. 2½, at 18, North Bruton-mews; and one named
H., of a year, at 5, Lancashire-court. Both vaccinated.
Of the 12 patients who employed their own medical
attendant, three who died, and one other, have alreadv been

Mayfair Sub-districts. One other was butler to a family in
Chapel-street. Four were children in one family in Georgestreet,
Oxford-street, aged 8, 6, 4, and 2. All had been

which one, G. B., mentioned above, proved fatal, 19 were

There were sent to the Small-pox Hospital six patients
from the Hanover and Mayfair Sub-districts, and three from
the Belgrave; one 64 years of age, another who died, 45,
child of 6. One of them was a young man of 23, one of
