the year, under the bye-laws for houses let in lodgings, but in
all cases but one, the registration notices resulted in the

At the beginning of the year only four houses remained on
the register; 92, Reidhaven Road, 91, Hudson Road, 16|,
Pattiaon Road, and 2, Plumstead Common Road.
85. Additional Inspector.—Your Vestry decided in the
middle of the year to obtain the services of an additional
Sanitary Inspector, and Mr. Wood was chosen out of 87 who
applied. So far he has fully justified the Vestry's choice.

I have the honour to be, Gentlemen,
Your obedient Servant,
SIDNEY DAVIES.
