The whole year has been one of unusual anxiety
and a large amount of work, and I must express my
appreciation of the services of Mr. Richards, the
Inspector of Nuisances, whom I have had frequently to
call out late at nights and on Sundays to perform some
duty, and I think we may look hack with much
satisfaction at the result of our labours.
JOSEPH OAK MAN,
Medical Officer of Health, for West Batter sea.
