    Emigrant Inspections. All emigrants travelling second class or steerage on board vessels out¬ ward bound are subject to inspection by the Medical Officers of the Board of Trade, Dr. Burland and Dr. Macintyre. The crews of all such vessels bound for America are also subjected to inspection by these Officers. An Inspector of the Port Sanitary Authority attends these clearances in order to supervise the removal of all persons who may be rejected on account of actual or suspected infectious disease. There were 342 such inspections, and 38 persons were rejected on account of infectious disease, most of whom were removed to the various City Hospitals. TABLE 19. Date, 1913 Name of Vessel.
