Excerpt from Sixteenth Annual Report of the State Board of Health of the State of Rhode Island, for the Year Ending December 31, 1893: And Including the Report Upon the Registration of Births, Marriages and Deaths in 1892 The full amount of the work done by the Board for the year cannot be presented as fully in detail as might have been had not the unfortunate death of the Secretary occurred near the close of the year. Dr. Charles H. Fisher, Secretary of the Board for fifteen years died on October 21, 1893. It had been his intention to treat of many interesting subjects in this report which his successor will not be able to present, owing to the lack of connection with investigations which had been made by the Secretary in person. The report is, therefore, dependent upon the records of the actions taken by the Board at the various meetings held during the year. From the records of the various meetings of the Board it will be observed that the work of the Board has been, the investigation of all suspected causes of ill health, the examination of nuisances actual or supposed, the dissemination of literature upon health matters and the continued issuance of the Medical Bulletin. Especial investigations have been made in reference to the presence of arsenic in suspected wall papers sold by dealers; and in the examinations of ice used for house supplies. Personnel of the Board. The term.of the membership of Dr. Paul S. Redfield, of Providence, member from Providence County, expired by limitation, July 1st, 1893. Gov. D. Russell Brown, at the January Session of the General Assembly, with the advice and consent of the Senate, re-appointed Dr. Redfield for a term of six years from July 1, 1803.
