discontinued my testings.
For the information of the Parishioners, I may mention
that a hospital carriage for removing persons suffering from
infectious diseases 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 to 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.
I have the honour to be,
My Lords and Gentlemen,
Your obedient Servant,
W. H. CORFIELD, M.A., M.D. (Oxon.),
F.R.C.P. (London).
