Cholera.
Your Committee held a special meeting
with reference to the notice received from the Local
Government Board as to the outbreak of Cholera in
Hamburg, and the precautions to be taken by local
Sanitary Authorities. Your Committee received a report
from the Medical Officer upon Cholera, copies of which
were forwarded to the members of the Vestry. A
double-crown poster of "Notes on Cholera," prepared by
the Medical Officer, was also printed for posting throughout
the Parish should occasion require.
Coroner's
Court
A letter from the London County Council
as to provision of a Coroner's Court, suggesting that one
should be built in connection with the existing mortuary in
St. George's Churchyard, was received and considered by
your Committee, and the Vestry was asked to approve the
following
Recommendation:—That the Council be informed that
the mortuary being on consecrated ground, under the
canon law no secular court could be held thereon, and
to ask that the Council will find a site adjacent for the
erection of a Coroner's Court.
This was approved by the Vestry, October 5th, 1892.
