REPORT
TO THE VESTRY OF PADDINGTON.
Vestry Hall,
July, 1862.
Gentlemen,
I have the honor to submit to you
the usual Annual Summary of the proceedings of
the Sanitary Committee during the year ending
Lady-day, 1862.
The orders which have been made during the
year for the improvement of dwellings and the
removal of nuisances, have been in every instance
eventually carried out. As in former years,
the requirements of the Committee have been
usually readily complied with by the owners of
property, and in addition a large amount of sanitary
work has been done spontaneously, shewing that
the advantages of maintaining the dwellings of the
poor in a wholesome and cleanly condition are
becoming more and more appreciated.
