Hygienic and medical reports [electronic resource] . iberian merchant, trading at Riode Janeiro, that my patient made a good recovery, and wasemployed as messenger by the department of state at Monrovia,[] besides being allowed a small pension from the government. In closing this report, I would respectfully call the attentionof the Bureau to what seems to be a serious defect in the con-struction of this ship. The average space between the store-room floors and the skin of the ship does not exceed 10 consequence is that the bilges often become foul in placeswhere it is not possible to clean them properly. By raising thefloors referred to a few inches higher, there would have been suf-ficient room for a man to enter and thoroughly clean every part,and the space thus taken from the store-rooms would not havebeen material. As it is, chips, shavings, etc., sealed up whenthe floors were laid, and left to rot in the interstices of the floor-timbers, cannot be removed except by cutting down upon themthrough the store-rooms.
