"London County Council,
"Spring Gardens, S.W.
"8th January, 1892.
"Sir,
"The Fire Brigade Committee of the Council has
"had its attention drawn to the desirability of making
"as widely known as possible the positions of the Fire
"Escapes and Fire Alarms in London, and the Com"mittee
wishes to know whether your Vestry is disposed
"to assist in the matter.
"The method which suggests itself to the Committee
"as being the most suitable and practicable of effecting
"the object in view, is by placing tablets of some des"cription
in or upon the street lamps. I send on the
"other side a list of the Fire Escape stations and of the
"positions of the Fire Alarms in the Hamlet of Mile
"End Old Town; and I am directed to point out the
"advantage to the inhabitants of this information being
"made public, by the method above indicated, or by any
"other means which your Board may consider preferable.
"I am, &c.,
(Signed) "H. DE LA HOOKE,
"Clerk of the Council.

"The Vestry of Mile End Old Town.
