ST. PETER'S CHURCH CRYPT.
The coffins from the vault of this Church wore removed under an
Order in Council, and under the supervision of the Medical Officer
of Health, to the cemetery at Woking. The removal was conducted
by the Necropolis Company, of Westminster Bridge Road, and
occupied ten days, commencing from the 4th June.
The coffins as a whole were in an excellent state of preservation,
and were conveyed in railway vans to the Depot of tho Necropolis
Company and thence by rail to Woking.
Two hundred and forty-seven coffins were dispatched as they were
found in the vault, without any cases.
Forty-three coffins had to be placed in cases.
Seven cases were filled with parts of coffins and other matters.
No complaint was made by any of tho inhabitants, and tho whole
of the removals took place without any difficulty arising. The
necessary disinfectants were used.

following extent: two 50, two 40, and one 34 per cent. In one
instance a fine of 40/- and 12/6 costs was inflicted; in another
instance the penalty was 30/- and 12/6 costs; and in a third case
20/- and 12/6 costs. In one instance the vendor was cautioned,
and in the other the summons was dismissed, a legal point as to a
Company having been raised. In six cases tho milk was said to
havo boon slightly watered, and the vendors wero cautioned. In one
case the summons was dismissed, as the analyst admitted the milk
had been frozen, and this might havo interfered with tho analysis.
In another case tho proceedings could not be taken, as tho promises
were shut up, and the vendor had gone away before the summons
could be served.
