§ MR. ARTHUR O'CONNORI beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland whether he is aware that fever has broken out in the town-lands of Glassan and Drimnacarry Dunfanaghy Union; and whether any steps have been taken to disinfect houses from which fever patients have been removed to hospital?
MR. J. MORLEYThe Local Government Board state that cases of fever have occurred in the district alluded to, but that most of the eases are now convalescent or nearly so. Their Medical Inspector, Dr. Clibborn, is now on his way to the district and will see that every precaution is taken to prevent the spread of the fever, which is believed to be of a very mild type.
