history of each separate dwelling, the possession of which will be
a considerable benefit in future sanitary administration, in
addition to which the remedial works which will in many cases
follow inspection will undoubtedly have a very beneficial effect
on the conditions under which large numbers are now living.
Sanitary Congress, 1910.
I desire to express my thanks to the Council for affording me
the opportunity of representing the District at the Congress of the
Royal Sanitary Institute held at Brighton in September last.
The Congress is organised in the interests of public health, and is
attended by delegates from all parts of the kingdom. In addition
to the discussions on subjects of importance in public health
administration, an exhibition of sanitary appliances is held,
constituting the finest collection of apparatus, including the latest
inventions in sanitary science, to be seen at one place. The
educational value of the Congress is very great, and the experience
gained therefrom is incorporated into the routine work of the year
to the advantage of the District. I appreciate being permitted to
continue attending the Congress, the advantages of which I have
now obtained for several years past.
In conclusion, I desire to acknowledge the consideration and
support I have received from the Council in carrying out the
duties of my office, and to assure the Council of my continued
efforts to promote the sanitary welfare of the District.
I beg to remain, Gentlemen,
Your obedient servant,
ARTHUR J. ABBOTT, P.A.S.I.,
Associate Royal Sanitary Institute,
Member Institute Sanitary Engineers.
