60 Parish of St. George the Martyr, Southwark.
The Parish of St. George the Martyr—shaped like a hatchet—is surrouuded
by no less than six other Sanitary Districts. In the past much delay has been
caused and valuable time lost, prior to the receipt of medical certificates of the
notifiable infectious diseases. This is especially so in those cases where the patients
live in boundary streets, a portion of which, or side only, happens to bo within the
Parish. With a view to obviating this difficulty in the future, I have—with the
approval of the Vestry—caused card-board placards to be printed and distributed for
the assistance of Medical Practitioners. A copy reads as follows:—
