TENTH FIELD HOSPITAL

MEDICAL BOARD ON DISABILITY

Though no orders were received from the Imperial authorities, after consultation with the O.C. troops, and on his authorization, a Board was held to report on all officers, non-commissioned officers and men likely to claim compensation for disability, the result of injuries and sickness received or experienced while on active service.

The Board was composed of myself, Surgeon Majors Devine and Duff, and the report made in duplicate, one copy being submitted to 0. C. troops, and one to the D.G.M.S. Canada. The Board had no authority to assess damages, and its report was intended simply as a primary record of all injuries and sickness.

Red Cross Funds. No funds were given the hospital by the Red Cross Society of Canada as was done with other Canadian organizations, nor were any of its funds given to any member of the same.

A small amount distributed among our own sick would have been very acceptable, as several were absolutely without funds, and had to be left so on our return, owing to the fact that we were rushed to Durban and embarked before the pay-rolls could be arranged.

Disbandment of Field Hospital. On arrival at Halifax July 22, the company was disbanded, the members receiving railway transport and meals for their various destinations.

Deaths

I regret, to announce the death of Private N.0. Price, of St. John, N.B., previously reported to 'Casualty', Cape Town. He was admitted to hospital at Vaalbank May 25, suffering from enteric, and transferred to 32nd Stationary Hospital May 29, where he died June 8. During his illness he was visited daily by some officer of the C.F.H. This man, a qualified medical practitioner, was most conscientious in his duties and a zealous worker. He was decidedly one of the best medical orderlies in the company. He was buried at Klerksdorp, his comrades voluntarily subscribing to a stone which was erected to his memory. His death was regularly reported to the proper authorities.
