referred to natural causes.

erysipelas 1, and typhoid fever 1.
Complaint has been made by the School Board for
London of a nuisance arising from the removal of
manure from the cowsheds of Mr. Morgan in Southwark
Park Road. I have inspected the premises
to-day and did not find any nuisance.
If the manure is removed two or three times a
week and the process is completed by half-past eight
o'clock in the morning, which Mr. Morgan assures
me is the case, I do not think any nuisance of a
serious character is likely to be caused.
July 15th, 1895.
