not the persons by whose act, default or sufferance, the nuisance
arose, as the boilers, &c., were being worked under a contract

were then taken, and they were fined £1 with £10 10s. costs,
having in the meantime carried out considerable alterations
with the view of abating the nuisance.
Proceedings under the Public Health (London) Act, and the
Metropolis Local Management Acts, were instituted by the
Council in the following cases:—
