It was located at Kroonstad according to the Birkenhead News of 11th May 1901.



Sergeant Howlett served in the Cheshire Regiment.

I can find no other references to the "Russian Dutch Hospital" in the newspapers of the day.

You only live once, but if you do it right, once is enough.
Best regards,

The outspoken views of Dr Kukharenko, who receives a mention in Dave F's above post above, once he had retuned to Moscow. The clip is from the Cork Weekly News 28th July 1900. It was a syndicated article and appeared in other British newspapers.

Thanks for the most interesting and informative info on the Russian/Dutch Hospital. It would seem Sir Lt. Lacom received good treatment as he overcame his typhoid to live another decade. Again, thanks for your very helpful posts.
