defects.
In May a report was presented to the Works and
General Purposes Committee by the Surveyor, upon
the unsatisfactory and dangerous condition of the tramways
throughout the Parish, and the Vestry, acting upon a recommendation
of the Committee, directed that the attention of the South
London Tramways Company be drawn to the matter, and that
they be required to put the lines in a proper state of repair
forthwith. The Company having replied that they were advised
that the lines were in a good condition generally, a notice to
remedy the defects, accompanied by a schedule of such defects,
was by order of the Vestry on the 24th July, served upon the
Secretary of the Company.
Upon a further report by the Surveyor to the effect that the
defects had not been remedied, the Vestry resolved, on the 8th
January, to engage Mr. J. Kincaid, M.I.C.E., to inspect the
lines and report thereon, with a view to an independent confirmation
of the report of the Surveyor preparatory to taking the
necessary proceedings to enforce compliance with the requirements
of the Vestry.
