From Secretary to Government, North-Western Provinces, to Commissioner, Benares
Division (No. 1479A.).-Dated Nynee Tal, the 6th September, 1869.
SIR,-I am directed to acknowledge the recept of your letter, No. 212, dated
18th ultimo, reporting a serious outbreak of cholera in the town of Suhutwar, in the
Bulliah Sub-Division of the Ghazeepore District.
2. In reply, I am to state that His Honor the Lieutenant-Governor has heard
with regret of this severe outbreak, and the more so as it may in some respect be
attributed to neglect of the reiterated admonitions of the Local Authorities to attend to
the sanitary condition of their village.
3. The provisions of Section 34 of Act V. of 1861 have this day been made
applicable to the town of Suhutwar, and a copy of the notification which has been
issued is herewith forwarded for your information. It is thought that the power
which will thus be placed in the Magistrate's hands will enable him to enforce the
removal of nuisances injurious to the public health.
4. I am to add that it is to be hoped that, as the Bulliah Fair draws near, the
vicinity will become more healthy. The Magistrate of Ghazeepore, however, will, if
necessary, report further on this subject as time advances.
5. The original enclosure of your letter is returned.
I have, &c.,
R. SIMSON,
Secy. to Govt., N.-W. P.
Extract from the Proceedings of the Hon'ble the Lieutenant-Governor of the North- Western
