Note.—This quotation was taken from the “proof copy” of chapter iv. sent out to India, and published there by the Government for general information. Since this paper was sent to press it has been compared with the complete report of the Indian Plague Commission recently published, and it is found that though the meaning remains the same, yet the actual wording has been modified to give expression to Dr Ruffer's doubts regarding the accuracy of the statistics aroused by the high death-rate among the uninoculated section of the Undhera community. The other members of the Commission agree in considering the statistics substantially accurate.
