That city has since been his home, and in the course of these thirty-eight years he has made nineteen trips each way, two of them being round the world. Bombay had grown to be a city of nine hun- dred thousand inhabitants, before the late visitation of the plague. Mr. Kittredge has been an active member of the Chamber of Commerce ; also of the Port Trust, in whose care are placed the harbor fore-shore and the city docks, valued at many millions. He secured the con- cession for a horse-railway i...n Bombay, which has been a great success, and now has a track of about twenty miles, and carries sixty thousand passengers daily. Mr. Kittredge was the pioneer in one of the impor- tant benevolences of India — the introduction of female physicians. Sufficient funds were secured, chiefly from natives, to bring out three ladies equipped with full medi- cal degrees. Funds were also secured by him and an influential associate, a Parsee gentleman, for a hospital, 388 ELIOT MEMORIAL. a dispensary, and then for a second hospital, all of which are in sole charge of lady doctors.
