Dung Nuisances have been complained of, and remedied
by the Inspector, at No. 3, Park Lane, Bolton Yard, Bell
Yard; Steward's Livery Stables at the rear of No. 50, Park
Street; and Davies Mews.
The returns of sanitary inspections, with recommendations
thereon, related to the following places in the Belgrave
Sub-district:—
Spring Garden Place, No. 3. Infected with small-pox.
The rooms have been limewashed.
Whittaker Street, No. 4. Infected with small-pox. A
letter was written for the patient, Moses Winter to be admitted
into the workhouse.
Robert Street, No. 4, Pimlico (left hand side). Infected
with small-pox. The house has been cleansed.
Cliffords Row, No. 5, Pimlico. Here a girl, aged 12, was
attacked with small-pox. She had been vaccinated by Mr.
Jorden on Monday, April 2, and on the 9th, the ordinary
appearance of vaccination presented itself on the arms, when,
according to the account of Mr. Davis, the parish Surgeon, it
did not seem to advance for two days, which may be accounted
for by small-pox showing itself on Tuesday the 10th.
Robert Street, Pimlico, No. 2 (right hand side). Infected
with small-pox, and part of the house dirty. The rooms
have been cleansed.
Robert Street, Pimlico, No. 3 (left hand side). Infected
with small-pox and scarlet fever; back room on the ground
floor dirty. The patient afflicted with small-pox refused to
be taken to the Wards in Mount Street. The rooms have
been cleansed.
Grosvenor Row, No. 7. Infected with small-pox, the
rooms have been cleansed.
Little Chester Street, No. 22. Infected with small-pox.
