The Vestry have not actually contracted any fresh loan
during the year, although they have agreed to do so, as before
stated.
The Vestry regret to say that they have been called upon to
pay about 1,500 for costs incurred by the Assessment
Committee, in relation to the appeals referred to in the previous
report.
Although the sum is large, it is calculated that the rates on
increase in the assessment, over that on which the appellants
were prepared to pay, will be about double the amount of the
costs, so that, in the end, the parish will be large gainers in
addition to having secured a rating, which it is not very probable
the appellants will try to alter for some time to come. The case
of the East London Railway has not yet been completed.
A list of the contracts entered into during the year will be
found at the end of the accounts
The annual accounts were duly audited, found correct, and
allowed by the Auditors, and are printed and published with this
report.
The reports of the several officers, dealing in greater detail
with many matters referred to in this report will be found
appended.
