There were many other Papers of much interest, but the points
mentioned above are, in my opinion, the points having special
interest for us at the present time in connection with our Public
Health work in this Borough.
In conclusion, I beg to thank you for so kindly appointing
me as your Delegate, and I feel sure that the unique opportunity
thus afforded me for discussing various points of practice with
colleagues from all parts of the kingdom, will be of ultimate
practical benefit to this Metropolitan Borough.
I am, Gentlemen,
Yours respectfully,
E. G. Annis.
