Halifax Hospital Shipyard Letters Reveal Treatment of Sailors

A set of 1777 1778 documents from Halifax recount a Governor and council dispute over sick sailors at George's Island Naval Hospital. James Dickson appeals to Sir George Collier for humane care as Major Lyons and surgeons directed removal of weak patients into a heavy rain, risking death. A sworn affidavit by John Scott corroborates the incident and criticizes removal of nearly bedridden men.
