Abstract
THE eighteenth report of the Board of Health on leprosy in New South Wales contains the usual careful clinical records of the features of the disease in the patients admitted during the year, as well as a record of all the cases occurring in the Commonwealth during 1908. No case of leprosy has ever been heard of in Tasmania. In the other States the disease occurs apparently most frequently in Chinese and in aboriginals, and is more frequent in northern than in southern territories.
