told him that he must conform in this particular. He has since
failed to comply with the regulation, and his premises are in as
unsanitary condition as they would have been had he been able

obliged to take out a licence.
Slaughter Houses.
The slaughter houses in the district are 25 in number, 7 in the
parish of Fulham and 19 in the parish of Hammersmith. They
were kept under regular inspection during last year. In most
instances they were found to be well conducted in accordance
with the requirements of your Board. In a few instances sanitary
defects were discovered, besides which some improvements
were deemed to be necessary. Notice were served upon several
of the licensees, all of which were complied with. On October
5th the whole of the licences were renewed, to which your Board
offered no opposition. No fresh application was made last year
for establishing a new slaughter house.
The subjoined table gives the slaughter houses in this
district:—
