SANITARY CIRCUMSTANCES OF THE BOROUGH.
The duties of the Sanitary Inspectors continued at
a very high level. Fortunately little time was lost on
account of sickness and the Inspectors were able to deal with
all the outstanding work which faced them. Much praise is
due to them for the able and efficient way in which they
overcame the swollen list of visits and other duties during
the year.
