Special Report to the Sanitary Committee.
April 17th, 1891.
Gentlemen,
I beg to report that a manufactory exists for
making some preparation of Antimony in the rear of No.
368 Mile End Road.
I visited the premises the nth March with the
Inspector and found there was an effluvia coming off
from the furnace which I consider is injurious to health.
