§ 26. Lord CHARLES BERESFORDasked what is the number of boys in His Majesty's ships "Impregnable I.," "Impregnable II.," and "Impregnable III." at present on the sick list; what is the nature of the illnesses; and what steps are the Admiralty taking for moving them to more healthy surroundings?
§ Dr. MACNAMARAThe total number victualled on board the three ships mentioned at the end of last week was 1,512; there were twenty-six hospital cases and twenty-seven on the sick list, the most 1261 numerous being pneumonia. As regards the last part of the question, I may say that the erection of a training establishment on shore is under consideration.
