The number unprotected in the villages of Rajmehal sub-division is so very small in
comparison, because in half the number of them exhaustive vaccination was performed.
The number unprotected among the boys of the Rajmehal school is comparatively very high,
shewing that the district is much better protected than the town, where, owing to the obsti-
nate prejudices of different classes of the people vaccination cannot at all progress favor-
ably.
