[Hill gave John Ivor Murray, Colonial Surgeon, a tally relative to the prevalence of syphilis among the ships of war in Hong Kong for the year 1868. According to his findings, there were 81 primary cases and 35 secondary cases; most of them were probably contracted in Japan for the period, and none in Hong Kong since October 1868 (no data for the period between January and September 1868).]
