Public Health Staff.
61. There was no change in the staff of the department
during the year, but in February, 1909, Mr. Triggs, Clerk,
resigned, and Mr. H. Smith has been appointed in his place.
In the same month Inspector Woolley died, after a long and
painful illness, and I take this opportunity of acknowledging
his devoted service, during 19 years, to the Local Authority.
Mr. H. Shaw has been appointed in his place.
I have to acknowledge, with thanks, the valuable assistance
of Chief Inspector Duck and the other members of the staff,
who have loyally co-operated with me in maintaining the high
standard of the sanitary administration of the Borough. The
foregoing report shews how great and extensive is the amount
of work with which they have to deal.
