We were glad to see Messrs. Nixon and Huckle on their safe return from
the war—especially the latter, as he was for some time a prisoner of war.
In closing this Report I desire to express my thanks for the support I
have always received from my Committee and Council.
I have the honour to be, Mrs. Benjafield and Gentlemen,
Your obedient Servant,
RICHARD JOHN BUTLAND,
Chief Sanitary Inspector.
