J. S. Haldane. 'Report to the Secretary of State for the Home Department,' 'On an Outbreak of Ankylostomiasis in a Cornish Mine,' in original wraps, 8 pages with an additional page of plates and a coloured section of Dolcoath Main Lode etc, fine condition, printed for His Majesty's Stationary Office, London, 1902. The mine in question is Dolcoath, as it had seen quite a few cases since 1897. The compiler states that Mr R. Arthur Thomas (mine manager) showed every assistance as indeed did Camborne School of Mines Laboratory. The parasitic worm enters the body through the foot working its way to the lining of the stomach. Haldane's work helps to identify the parasite and cure the miners.
