Table VII. shows the results of my analyses of the water
supplied by the two Companies in the Parish during each
of the 12 months. In both cases the average quality was
superior to that of the preceding year, and this was especially
the case with the Chelsea Company's water.
The common gas supplied by the London Gas Company
has been examined by me from time to time at their testing
room, and has always been found to be above the required
standard of illuminating power, and to satisfy the prescribed
tests for ammonia and sulphuretted hydrogen.
For the information of the Parishioners, I may mention
that a hospital carriage for removing persons suffering from
infectious diseases is kept at the Workhouse, in Mount
Street; but those who are in a position to bear the expenses
of their support should apply to the London Fever Hospital,
Liverpool Road, Islington; or, in case of small-pox, at the
Highgate Small-pox Hospital, where they can be accommodated
on favourable terms.
I have the houour to be,
My Lords and Gentlemen,
Your obedient Servant,
W. H. CORFIELD, M.A., M.D. (Oxon.),
F.R.C.P. (London).
