Excerpt from Report of the Yellow Fever Expedition to Parà: Of the Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine and Medical Parasitology

The sad loss of my comrade, walter myers, after some nine months of constant companionship, though already engraved on the records of scientific research and adventure, cannot be passed over in silence. Shortly before we were struck, almost simultaneously, with the fever, we had agreed to confine our attention to a short programme, which would possibly have allowed us to return home some two months later. This, however, was not to be. The defects Of this report will be a tribute to the lack of his friendly criticism, and the omissions would have been fewer had his energy and ability been available for continuing our observations nearer to the stage Of completeness.

A more pleasurable task is to record the appreciation of, and gratitude to, those from Whom we received assistance in the furthering Of our aims. First and foremost is due our thanks to Dr. Jose' paes DE carvalho, whose constant solicitude for our welfare, both in health and sickness, and whose position as the worthy Governor of the State Of Para rendered the prosecution Of our researches possible.
