-Salah satu contoh perselisihan pendapat mengenai punca wabak beri-beri di antara [[w_l_braddon|Dr. Braddon]] dengan tokoh-tokoh lain ketika itu ialah pada tahun 1902, yang melibatkan State Surgeon Selangor [[e_a_o_travers|Dr. Ernest Aston Otho (E.A.O.) Travers]]. Ianya dicetuskan oleh permohonan lawatan [[w_l_braddon|Dr. Braddon]] ke Penjara Pudu di Kuala Lumpur, berikutan wabak beri-beri yang memuncak di sana, serta ketidakpuasan hati beliau terhadap laporan yang disediakan oleh [[e_a_o_travers|Dr. Travers]]. [[e_a_o_travers|Dr. Travers]] yang telah pun sedia cenderung menolak "teori beras" beliau itu, mengemukakan pertikaian terhadap tujuan lawatan tersebut. Malah Pengarah I.M.R. 1900-1903, Dr. Hamilton Wright, turut mengaitkan beri-beri dengan sejenis organisme, sekaligus menolak "teori beras" Dr. Braddon: //"Dr. Hamilton Wright, Pengarah Institut Penyelidikan Perubatan Kuala Lumpur (1900-1903) dalam tulisan beliau yang bertajuk "Observations on Beri-beri in the Kuala Lumpur Gaol" contohnya, mengaitkan beri-beri dengan sejenis organisme."// (Noraini Mohamed Hassan @ Sumbu Dunia Melayu: Hubungan Keserumpunan Malaysia-Indonesia, 2017: [[https://books.google.com.my/books?id=yGxwEAAAQBAJ|"Penyelidikan Beri-Beri di Tanah Melayu dan Hindia Belanda, 1880-an Hingga 1914]], m.s.275). Laporan akhbar ketika itu turut menyebelahi pendapat Dr. Wright ini: //"The vexed question of the causation of beri-beri by the consumption of bad rice is thus handled by for Traders in the Medical Report on Selangor for 1902. A comparison between the Tai Wa Ward and Leper Asylum, on the one hand, and the Pudoh Gaol on the other, affords a very convincing proof against the theory of the causation of beri-beri by a toxin contained in Rangoon rice. ... In the Pudoh Gaol, Tai Wa Ward, and Leper Asylum, we have three institutions, the inhabitants of which are the same nationality. The Rangoon rice consumed by them is supplied from the same source. It would be reasonable to support that if the disastrous outbreak of beri-beri that occured in one of them, the Pudoh Goal, during the year, were conveyed by the Rangoon rice, the patients in the Tai Wa Ward and Leper Asylum should suffer from beri-beri in the same way as the prisoners.
