A garbled report from early Australian press hints at naval supply routes and meat shipments, mentioning whale oil, frozen meat, and a six month contract. It references the Kempsey Chronicle and a transition from WW fisher history, with stray notes on nets, lagoons, and a distant fish and pig image.
The Manilla district hospital reports a challenging year yet shows a surplus, noting a year opening credit of £158 11 5 and closing at £219 8 11. Revenue from all sources amounted to £2172 1 4 with expenditures at £2106 3 10, aided by subsidies and Systematic Contribution Scheme growth. The hospital treated 465 inpatients and 85 outpatients, with a low in-patient mortality rate of 3.01, and 13 births recorded. Donations and special contributions from branches and associations supported operations, while staff and nurses earned praise for efficiency and care. The incoming Board is urged to maintain support and manage potential changes to hospital awards.
We hereby certify that we examined the books vouchers and documents of the Manilla District Trustees and the share statement of receipts and expenditures for the year to Time 30 1993 in accordance therewith W. D. Hartley W. Filwell
