I must also record my approval of the satisfactory manner
in which Messrs. Bull and Aldous, the Clerks, have worked.
They have always been willing, obliging and painstaking. A
word of praise is also due to Mr. May, the Dust Foreman.
To his steady working and courteous manner, the efficiency in
the collection of the house refuse is, to a great extent, due.
I also appreciate and desire to acknowledge the kind
co-operation of the other officials.
I am, Gentlemen,
Your obedient Servant,
F. W. KING,
Chief Sanitary Inspector.
