Before the 14th July, your Inspectors viewed about 800 nuisances, but
correct records of them were not kept. The total number of nuisances
which have come under the notice of your Inspectors, since their appointment
in February last, is 2,197. I am informed by your Surveyor, that permission
has been granted, to the owners of about 120 houses, to drain them into the
sewers.
