The water supplies were:—
19 main supply.
2 main supply per covered cistern.
1 shallow well (water analysed, no Bacillus
Coli or Typhosus found)
(See Report on Water Supply.)
As far as I was able to get at the causation I have classified
the probable causes as follows:—
Employed at Sewage Works 1
Employed at Dust Shoot 1
Eating Shell Fish 2
Probably Contracted out of District 8
Drinking Water from a Polluted Ditch 1
Unascertained 9
22
All defects to house drains were remedied. The sewer
ventilators in Morley and Howard Roads were erected early
in the year. There have been no fresh cases in that locality
during the year. I should recommend very strongly that more
of these ventilators be erected.
I append a list of Enteric Fever cases occurring during 1908,
