From these contentious matters it is agreeablo to proceed to
acknowledge the help and many kindnesses which I have enjoyed
from my colleagues. The Town Clerk, his Deputy and the other
Chief Officers have shown me much consideration. Dr. Waldron,
the Divisional Medical Officer, has at all times, by his understanding
and desire to co-operate amicably, mado my place in the Divisional
set-up an easy one to fill. I thank the staff of the Department for
their loyalty and service and I wish to record my appreciation to
the Chairman and Vice-Chairman of the Public Health Committee
for their support and confidence.
Finally I must apologise for the unconscionable length and
discussiveness of this preface. My one excuse is that of all the
many pages in this Report the preface is most likely, in these busy
days, to be afforded at least a casual glance.
I have the honour to be,
Your obedient Servant,
J. Kerr Brown,
Medical Officer of Health
