32 Parish of Saint Georgt the Martyr, Southwark.
The Contractors, Messrs. Ponsford & Son of Brixton has
planted 84 fresh Trees in place of the dead ones during the
months of November and December last. The additional space
given to the fresh trees ordered by the Vestry will, I feel confider
be of very great benefit to them, and if carried out to all the tree
in the Parish would prevent many of them dying.
