DOCTOR SUED
BY HOSPITAL BOARD. CHRISTCHURCH, April 17. In the Lyttelton Magistrate’s Cour to-day, the North Canterbury Hospi. tai Board claimed from Dr C. H. Upham the sum of £3B for services ren dered by the pathological department at the hospital. The decision of the Court in the ease will be interesting and important. Dr Upham sent a swab to the hospital for testing. The Board contended it did tho work fo r . th e doctor, but the doctor claims he was only an agent and that the Board should collect the sum due from the patient. It was stated that similar actions had been threatened against two other doctors, but the cases had been settled out of Court.
