Title
Letter from Watson to Ross
Date
30/7/1907
Description
He has sent a report and a copy of an editorial in the Malay Mail to Ross by a previous post and amplifies the article. Gives an account of his own work and that the mosquito proof lines that he had written of have been delayed by the workmen's refusing to take quinine and being ill. He sent his paper for the British Medical Association meeting too late for it to be read and that he has been asked to be private medical advisor to the rubber estates and had had to take a partner in consequence. He feels that eventually malaria will be conquered by drainage and that quinine will be a secondary measure
