今般御管内各處温泉に出張別紙
之通取調候處泉質分析検査の
義者先輩も尤難する處にして素より
狭見拙手の及ふ所に無御座候に付一
應土地の景況病客之様子視察
仕傍泉質の義も在来之試薬を以て
試候處泉質の義者大同小異其
弊害の如きは幾莫を知らす第一土地
病室共不潔を極め汚水屎尿路
傍に潴溜陰雲降雨の砌は別して

I found that the spring water quality was roughly similar with minor differences, but the harmful effects are immeasurable. First and foremost, both the land and the patient rooms are extremely unsanitary, with sewage and human waste pooling by the roadsides, and during cloudy weather and rainfall it is particularly
