NOTIFICATION OF GLANDERS,
ANTHRAX, AND HYDROPHOBIA IN MAN.
I have received from the Clerk to the London
County Council a copy of the following order:—
“The London County Council doth hereby resolve and
order that Section 55 of the Public Health (London) Act,
1891, with respect to the notification of infectious disease,
shall apply, in the Administrative County of London, to

in man."
This order, came into operation as from and
including 26th April, 1909.
