cleansed the yard and basement, and promised to discontinue
the use of the loft as a sleeping apartment.
All over the parish, the pressure for space induces
many persons to occupy similar sheds over similar places,
which the Committee authorise us to discourage as much

Hertford Place, No. 9, is another example. The
room has been shut up, and there is a promise that it shall
not be again occupied.
Little Grosvenor Street, No. 17. The yard and several
rooms very dirty. Cleansed.
Ditto, No. 7. Scarlet fever here: lower part of house
cleansed and lime-whited, offensive closet trapped, and
water supplied.
Avery Row, No. 13a. Scarlet fever here: the apartments
cleansed; but the whole premises require repairs
and ventilation, which have not yet been effected, and
must be noticed again.
Ditto, No. 17. This place, which adjoins the premises
last mentioned, consisted of a yard, extremely filthy with
chickens, a stable, and a residence over, no sufficient light,
ventilation, or water-closet accommodation. The most
distressing thing is, that the rooms are inhabited by a
respectable man, with three idiot children, aged respectively
14, 15, and 18, utterly helpless and imbecile.
All the desired improvements are not yet effected.
