    [ 15.-] (Vaccination in India.) SECOND APPENDIX TO THE REPORT (dated 22 April 1813) of the P R O C E E D I N G S OF THE NATIONAL VACCINE ESTABLISHMENT. TO THE RIGHT HONOURABLE LORD VISCOUNT SIDMOUTH. Mr Lord, Leicester Square, May 24, 1813. 11 E Board of the National Vaccine Establishment have received the enclosed JL papers since they had the honour of communicating to your Lordship their Report of the state of Vaccination during the year 1812: and they take the liberty of recommending, that, when they shall have been submitted to the Honourable the House of Commons, they should be printed and subjoined as a second Appendix to their Report now, by the order of the House, in the press. These papers contain a valuable testimony of the rapid progress which, in one of our Eastern Govern- ments, has been made by Vaccination in the year 1810 and 1811: and the Board ol the National Vaccine Establishment is ofopinion, that the prudent andjudicious conduct of the Medical Board of Madras, in re-establishing the Small Pox Hos- pital, for the reception of persons casually attacked with the disorder, may be a useful lc>son of instruction to the inhabitants of other countries, to provide places of seclusion for people affected with the disease, in order to prevent the propa- gation of its infection. ,7/ IL11 < j/, Reg.
