The buildings at the Quarantine Island, Motuihi, are being* got in order for the reception of about a hundred patients from the Avondale Mental Hospital, which is at present so overcrowded. In the meantime, about fifty patients will be sent up within the next fortnight to the new hospital at Tokanui, near Kihikihi, and this will give immediate relief.
