Public Health Department,
333, Kennington Road, S.E.
February, 1907.
To the Mayor, Aldermen and Councillors of the
Metropolitan Borough of Lambeth.
Mr. Mayor and Gentlemen,
It is my privilege to present to you a most satisfactory
Report for the year 1906. The mortality and morbidity rates
are below the averages, shewing that the Borough of Lambeth
still holds a foremost place amongst the metropolitan sanitary
districts and amongst the large provincial towns.
I would draw attention to the good work that has been
accomplished during the year 1906 in connection with the
Lambeth Municipal Milk Depot, which was opened to the
Public on February 12th, 1906.
The sanitary staff, as a whole and individually, has worked
well, as shewn by the records tabulated in this Report.
To the heads of departments my thanks are due, as also to the
members of the Borough Council, for support readily given.
I am, Mr. Mayor and Gentlemen,
Your obedient Servant,
Medical Officer of Health.
