Monday, Feb. 28th. All of the Committee present except Messrs. Hill, Dudley Wentworth and Linscott. Henry M. Carlow, recalled. By Mr. Baker: Q. I want to call your attention to the case brought up on the other side, of premature birth. State in your own fashion all the facts in relation to that A. The female patient in question was admitted to the hospital some time in April I think 1876; I am not quite sure about the year, but I know it was the first of April, and it went along until the last of July, when the attendant came to me and said the lady was sick. I think that was July 26th. And I went right in immediately and found that there was considerable flowing. I immediately covered the lady up and went out and called for Miss Harris the supervisor who has had experience in lying in women, nursing.
