to institute a record of all the houses in the borough which are
likely to require systematic inspection, dating from the beginning
of the year 1903. Where drainage work has been
carried out and no plan could be demanded from the builders
we have, in twenty-six instances, been able to keep a record of
the amount of work done. This has been done by one of your
staff, Mr. Fenner, from sketches supplied by the Sanitary
Inspectors.
In conclusion, I have to thank the members of my staff
for the assistance they have always so willingly given me and
the members of the Public Health Committee and the Council
for the consideration so often shown.
I am, Gentlemen, your obedient Servant,
FRANCIS STEVENS.
