    General Hospital Birmingham, Sept. 17 th, 1831. Sir, Your favour of the 12th inst. reached me two days later than, I believe, it ought to have done; since which time the business of preparing for the Annual Board, which took place yesterday, has so fully occupied me, that I have not had time to say that I laid your parcel before the Medical Board, or rather the Members of it, as soon as I received it, but have not received any instructions thereon. ^ I am. Sir, Your’s, respectfully, WM. MILLER, Secretary. To Mr. Wm. Hebb, Surgeon, Worcester. Sir, In reply to your communication on the subject of the Hereford Infirmary, I am directed by the Medical Officers of that Institution, to observe, that you appear to be misinformed respecting its Rules and Regulations, and the manner in which they were enacted. With those Rules and Regulations, as they exist, the Medical Officers are perfectly satisfied. I am. Sir, Your obedient Servant, J. J. BELL, Secretary. Hereford Infirmary, Sept. 22nd, 1831. Mr. Wm. Hebb, Surgeon, Worcester. FINIS. Piintcd by H. B. Tymbs and H. Dcightoii, High-Street, Worcester.
