Rag and Bone Shops.
The Inspectors reported that these shops were kept in
fair cleanly condition, considering the nature of the business
carried on in them.
The health of our population throughout the year has
been very good, this no doubt is largely owing to the many
sanitary improvements which have taken place in the
District, through the action of your Board.
I have the honour to be, Gentlemen,
Your obedient Servant,
S. R. LOVETT,
Licentiate of the Royal College of
Physicians, Edin., Sfc.
