VACCINATION NOTICE.

Superintendent’s Office,
New Plymouth, February 6, 1869.

IT is hereby notified for general information that the Vaccination Officers appointed under the “Vaccination Act, 1863,” will attend for the purpose of Vaccinating, and also of inspecting the progress of Vaccination previously performed, at the following places and hours:—

Dr. Rawson—At his residence in Fulford-street, (near the Freemasons’ Hall), every day, from 2 to 3 p.m.

Mr. O’Carroll, Surgeon—At his residence in Devon-street, every Friday, at any hour of the day.

Mr. Humphries, Surgeon—At Messrs. Humphries’ Store, Devon-street, every Saturday, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.

Mr. St. George, Surgeon—At Mr. A. Rawson’s, Druggist, Currie-street, every Saturday, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.

N.B.—All children of the Native race and the children of Europeans, who are unable to pay, can be Vaccinated free of charge at the Provincial Hospital, any Saturday between the hours of 10 a.m. and 2 p.m.

As the disease of small pox is now prevalent in some of the Australian Colonies and cases have occurred in New Zealand, the attention of parents and guardians is especially called to the importance of causing all children to be Vaccinated without delay who have not already been Vaccinated successfully. Attention is also called to the 10th and 11th clauses of the “Vaccination Act, 1863,” by which penalties are imposed for the neglect of Vaccination, and for neglecting to bring children who have been Vaccinated to be inspected by the Medical Officer by whom it was performed, on the eighth day after Vaccination.

H. R. RICHMOND,
Superintendent.
