Folio 5: Baing a supernumerary surgeon on board the Castor the frigate that brought the French ship toi action I volunteered to go on board directly after the action to assist the French Surgeon. I found the before mentione French men wounded, in all 40. The French second captain was sent on his parole. Ten recovered of the wounds before I had an opportunity of landing them at an hospital. Eight died of their wounds and 21 were sent to the hospital Antigua.
Folio 6: I also found 34 upon the fever list of the French Surgeon, 12 at that time convalescent, 19 applied with a fever resembling the jail or ship fever of our country, three died, one evidently of the true West India fever. There were four afterwards taken ill of the European fever which was sent to the Hospital antigua together with the other 19 making in all 23. For fear the fever that was at the time raging on board the Le D’Hautpoul might be contagious ebery part of the Hold, Orlop, and Lower Deck was fumigated with the fumes given out by mixing mangines and sulphuric acid. This in my opinion is an excellent method of fumigating as it gives out pure oxygen, and by that means renders the foul air that may be collected on the orlop or elsewhere fit for respiration, whither it has any specific effect in removing contagion is a matter of doubt with me. Free ventilation by windsails was also used. The mangines and sulphuric acid was found in the Le D'Hautpoul. Folio 6: Medical and surgical journal of HMS Abercrombie from 17 April to 14 June 1809 during which time the said ship was employ[ed] on the Leeward Island Station.
