ref. 12783Ordered by The House of Commons to be Printed 25 June 1866. 28 1 pp. 8vo. In fair condition on aged and lightly-worn paper. P. 1 has the drophead title: 'STRAND UNION WORKHOUSE. RETURN to an Order of the Honourable The House of Commons dated 25 June 1866; - for COPY "of the REPORT made by R. B. Crane Esquire Poor Law Inspector to the Poor Law Board after an Inquiry held by him on the 4th and 6th June 1866 into certain Allegations made by Matilda Beeton in reference to the Treatment of the Sick in the Strand Union Workhouse." Poor Law Board 25 June 1866. ENFIELD Secretary.' Beeton was an early whistleblower: she had previously described the appalling conditions at the Rotherhithe Workhouse Infirmary. Among her charges in this case are 'The Theft and Sale of Beer &c. by the Patients and Nurses and the Sale of Milk by one class of Inmates to another' and 'The Badness of the Washing the Drunkenness of the Washerwomen and the Defective Supply of Linen for the Sick'. 'Several cases of a very distressing character are described in the evidence' and among Cane's conclusions after a detailed enquiry are that 'Want of space and of proper accommodation for the sick and want of good nursing and of efficient attendance are now the urgent requisites of this establishment. . There may be reasons why the guardians should feel embarrassed and hesitate to carry out their resolution to build a new workhouse; but there are no reasons that I am aware of which prevent them from at once appointing a sufficient staff of efficient nurses and attendants upon the sick.' Scarce: no copy of the actual document as opposed to 'Electronic Resources' to be found on COPAC or OCLC WorldCat. For an outline of the affair see Ruth G. Hodgkinson's 'The Origins of the National Health Service' 1967 pp.492-3. Ordered, by The House of Commons, to be Printed, 25 June 1866. unknown
