SEWERS.
The work of Flushing the Pipe Sewers and Cleaning
the Brick Sewers was regularly carried out during the
summer months, and during the hot, dry weather two
water carts were employed in disinfecting the gullies.
758 gallons Carbolic Acid and 50 gallons of Jeye's Purifier,
costing £71 17s. 6d., were used. The cost of water for
flushing the sewers was £58 7s. 0d.
The old 12-inch Pipe Sewers being insufficient in depth,
and very defective, the Vestry resolved that they should
be broken up, and an 18-inch Pipe Sewer substituted at a
lower level. The work was carried out by Mr. Armstrong;
the cost, including the making good of all Branch Drains,
being *£309 4s. 9d.
An 18.inch Pipe Sewer in Morpeth Street and a 12-inch
Pipe Sewer in Knottisford Street were laid by Mr. Porter,
at a cost of £170 10s. 10d., and from these works 357
loads of Sand and Ballast were removed to the Vestry
Depot, Digby Street.
