out our requirements, no opposition would be made by
the Vestry. Mr. Jones accordingly proceeded with
the work, and had about half completed it by the time
fixed for the meeting of the magistrates. The licence
was opposed by us, and the case was adjourned to the
next meeting, by which time, as the necessary alteration
had been completed, no opposition was offered by
us. A silk worker, however, who resided in the house
intended for the occupation of the cow keeper (but
who was under notice to leave), opposed the licence
on the ground that the business would be a nuisance
to him, and would ruin his work, which was silk of a
very delicate colour. The magistrates, after hearing
the evidence, declined to grant the licence.
A list of the cow sheds in the parish is given below.
I trust that I shall be able to report next year that
they are in a much better condition than at present.
