great safeguard was brought into action.
Complaints, during the year, have been received both

attention of the Council, with a view to removing any future

This year the return of deaths is more correct than it
has hitherto been, as we have been able to obtain returns of
Ilford residents dying in London and the various outside

and indebtedness to the various officials of the Council for
their assistance in many ways, and especially to those of the
Public Health Department.
I am, Gentlemen,
Your obedient Servant,
C. F. STOVIN, M.A., D.P.H.,
Medical Officer of Health.
