Inspector Mackie—Pood Inspection, Market and principa

Inspector Little—Workshops and Factories in Plumstead
Parish.
Inspector Wood—Workshops and Factories in Woolwich
Parish.

to House Inspection in Eiver Ward
and Inspector Wood in Dockyard
Ward, owing to the importance of
completing the House to House
Inspection in these Wards.
