On June 13th, the Council, having considered the above resolutions, decided to adhere to their
previous decision to combine with the adjoining authorities for small-pox purposes only, and to treat other
infectious diseases in a separate hospital Jor the Borough. The further action taken by the Council in this
question during the year is to be found in the memorandum which I submitted to the Council in November
[vide Appendix, p. 32).
Early in the summer I was instructed to report upon the Canning Town Pumping Station and the
Manhattan Wharf as possible sites for a temporary cholera hospital ; my report being unfavourable in each
case, and, as previously mentioned, the Council obtained the use of the Guardian's Hospital for this
purpose.
