as an intention had been shewn to carry out our requirements, the license

license was not opposed in this case.
Morgan EvaDs, 1, Somerford-street. Place structurally defective,

dung pit, the paving and drainage being both defective. The license

place dirty and neglected. License refused.

Mr. Bailey's cow shed, in Suffolk-street, which was reported upon last
year as in very bad condition, has been entirely reconstructed, and is
now in a very satisfactory condition. Unfortunately, however, a case of
cattle plague made its appearance amongst the cows on the 23rd March.
Information was at once given to the Government Inspector, who ordered
the whole of the cows in the shed to be slaughtered, the place to be
disinfected, and closed for a period of thirty-eight days, which was
accordingly done. No other case has since shewn itself in the district.*
Mr. Mansfield still uses his yard as a dust shoot, but has given up
cow keeping. The others call for no special remark, and are given
below:—
