(7) That your Sanitary Inspector, Mr. Cox, reported as follows :
"85, exmouth street.
"According to your instructions I summoned the owner
"of this house re foul drain. The work was done before
"the hearing of the summons and on attending the Court
"I withdrew the summons, the defendent having paid me
"the costs."
"65, 67 and 69, old church road.
"The owner of these houses having made satisfactory
"progress with the works ordered by the Vestry, I did
"not think it necessary to take proceedings as directed."
"55, 57, 59 and 6l, old church road.
"On visiting these houses before taking proceedings as
"directed, I found the tenant of No. 57 was dangerously
"ill. I therefore took a summons out re Nos. 59 and 61.
"On the case being heard it was found that the husband
"of the owner had accepted service of the summons.
"The Magistrate adjourned the hearing for seven days for
"re-service of summons upon Mrs. Marston the owner.
"Before the hearing of the case the tenants had moved
"out and the houses were and are now closed. I there"fore
withdrew the summons."
"Hearing that the tenant of No. 57 could be moved
"without danger, I took a summons out re Nos. 55 and 57.
"On visiting the premises before attending the Court
"I found the tenant of 55 had moved out and the house
"was closed,"
"On the case being heard re 57, the Magistrate after
"hearing the evidence of myself and the Medical Officer
"of Health made an order on the owner requiring her
"to execute the necessary repairs, cleansing, &c., within
"21 days."
