CANCER.

HOUSES LET IN LODGINGS.
There are four houses registered.
It became necessary to call the owner's attention to the
insanitary condition of one of these houses. He had the
necessary work immediately effected. There can be no doubt
that many such houses remain unregistered.
COMMON LODGING HOUSE.
There is one registered Common Lodging House. Periodical
inspection has been made, and the premises have always
been found in a fairly satisfactory condition.
