was put in charge of the yard, and Mr. Rutty resumed
duty on August 12th. Temporary arrangements had
also to bo made from 28th January to February 4th

Vacant Land
In consequence of the complaints of nuisance caused
by the vacant land at the West end of Mead Street and
in Usk Street at the corner of Dullard's Place being
unenclosed, notices were served upon the owners, calling
upon them to fence it in with proper and sufficient
hoardings, and this has been done.
Insanitary
Areas
A letter having been received from the London
County Council, asking that the Medical Officer and
Surveyor to the Vestry might report upon any unhealthy
area within the Parish, in company with the
Medical Officer and Sanitary Inspector (Mr. Weston),
I made an inspection of the whole of the houses in the
area bounded on the North by Virginia Road, on the
South by Church Street, on the East by Mount Street,
and on the West by Boundary Street
As a result of the inspection, I believe the Medical
Officer has made a representation to the Council under
the Artizans' and Labourers' Dwellings' Acts, particulars
of which will be found in his report.
