to give notice when remedying the defect, in order that the
works might be examined. No such notice, however, having

it was found that a new water-closet, &c. had been fixed, and
certain repairs made to the drains. That on the 2nd inst., not

application was made to test the drains with water, but the
Inspector was refused admission to the premises without a
Magistrate's Order. The Chief Sanitary Inspector then asked
the authority of the Committee to apply to a Court for a warrant
for the purpose, and they gave directions that application should
be made for the same, if found necessary. See report of proceedings

"Collingwood Arms," Plough Road, that the licence of these
premises was one which he had opposed in March, at which time

communication with the Clerk to the Justices relative to Mr.
Pott's neglect to comply with the order made upon him by the
Bench.
The Clerk to the Justices had summoned Mr. Potts to attend

Vestry were not carried out by their next meeting, his license
would be seriously imperilled, since which the licence holder has
considerably enlarged the urinal, giving a superficial area of
from 24 to 30 feet.
6th September.—The Committee also considered report of the
Chief Sanitary Inspector relative to several houses in Savona
