Information was received of a case of Smallpox in
Epsom during October, and under the direction of the
Medical Officer of Health, special attention was paid to the
Lodging Houses with a view to the detection of any contacts
with the case who might arrive at the premises.
LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.
Proceedings were instituted against a butcher for
exposing for sale certain meat which was diseased (Tuberculosis)
and unfit for the food of man. The defendant was
convicted and fined £10 with an additional £5 5s. costs.
Conclusion.
I again desire to thank the Chairman and the members
of the Public Health Committee and the Corporation generally
for their kindly consideration and support during the
year.
I am, Gentlemen,
Your obedient Servant,
HAROLD T. PERRY, A.R.San.I.,
Chief Sanitary Inspector.
