On the 31st October the Middlesex Magistrates, at their Petty Sessions, held at the Holborn Town Hall, granted licenses for slaughter-houses to the following butchers:—
| Slaughter-houses. | Licensees. |

Cow-houses.
On the same day renewed licenses were granted to the
undermentioned cow-keepers:—
(1.) Mr. Rees Lewis, of No. i, Coal Yard, to keep 10
cows, in a shed 28 ft. x 17 ft. x 15 ft. = 7,140 cubic
feet.
(2.) Messrs. Bonner and Capper, of 56, Great Coram
Street, to keep 6 cows, in a shed 29 ft. x 16 ft. x 8 ft =
3,712 cubic feet.
(3.) Messrs. Bonner and Capper, of 19, Tavistock Mews,
to keep 11 cows, in a shed 24 ft. x 22 ft. x 10 ft. = 5,280

As evidence that the slaughter and cow-houses in this
district are kept in good sanitary order, no opposition was
made to the renewal of the licenses, either by the
Metropolitan Board of Works, or by your own officers.
