"London County Council,
"Spring Gardens, S.W.
23rd July, 1890.
"Sir,
"I am directed by the Fire Brigade Commit"tee
of the Council, to state that in several parishes
"alterations have recently been made in the form of
"street lamps, in many of which tablets indicating the
"positions of hydrants and fire plugs have with the con"sent
of the lighting authorities been inserted.
"The substitution of improved lamps necessitates the
"provision at considerable expense of fresh tablets and
"the reglazing of those sides of the lamps in which such
"tablets are fixed.
"If the lighting authorities were to give instructions
"for spaces to be left for tablets in any new lamps pro"vided
in place of old ones, unnecessary expense would
"be saved; and I am accordingly instructed to express a
"hope that your Board will give directions for this to be
"done.
"I am, &c.,
(Signed) H. DE LA HOOKE,
Clerk of the Council.
"The Clerk of
"The Vestry of Mile End.
and your Committee resolved to recommend—That the
Surveyor be instructed to, as far as possible, facilitate the
fixing of tablets indicating positions of hydrants, &c., in the
public lamps.
