“On the following day I had a surprise visit from the A.D.M.S. and Kennedy. They spent the day with me, and I showed them all the sights, including the Forestry Village. The A.D.M.S. did not approve of my idea of a hospital in the Forestry Village, as it was too far (1 mile) from the railway. He was disgusted with the sanitation of the place, and ticked off the camp commandant for not helping me to improve matters. The A.D.M.S. returned to Archangel at night, but Kennedy stayed on for a couple of days making notes of all the sanitary requirements.”
