HAWKE’S BAY PROVINCIAL HOSPITAL.

REPORT FOR THE YEAR 1866.

The number of patients admitted into the Hawke’s Bay Provincial hospital during the year 1866, was 67, and the number of deaths has been 11, or about 15 per cent. of the whole total treated. Of this mortality all except four were cases of long standing, and of a kind necessarily fatal—cases usually sent to a hospital after other treatment has failed, and the funds of the patient have become exhausted. Subjoined is a list of the deaths:—

James B. Ferguson—Apoplexy.
William Garety—Softening of the brain from long and hard drinking.
Daniel Lucas—An old man, for many years afflicted with mental imbecility and broken down health.
Robert Jews—Pulmonary consumption. This man had just arrived from Auckland.
Simon Curtis—Malignant disease of stomach.
John Nelson—An old fisherman at the Spit, admitted in a dying state apparently from liver disease.
