The amount received from the London County Council
during the year was £'200 8s. Od. in respect of cleansings
and 1119 lis. Od. in respect of scabies and cases and
impetigo.
The non-Hammersmith cases of scabies and verminous
conditions were dealt with, as the districts in which the
persons were resident have not provided medicinal baths.
A charge of two shillings in respect of each bath given is
made and is paid by the responsible Authority.
