ANNUAL REPORT
OF THE
Medical Officers of Health
FOR THE
Year ended 31st December, 1909.
To the Mayor, Aldermen and Councillors
of the Borough of Wimbledon.
Gentlemen,—
As required by the General Orders of the Local Government
Board of March 23rd, 1891, Article 18, Section 14, 1
beg to present to you my report for the period January 1st to
October 12th, 1909, the latter being the date on which my
appointment as Medical Officer of Health terminated.
Last year I had the pleasure of presenting my thirtyeighth
Annual Report, and it is with the deepest possible
regret I make this my last Official Report to you. You will, I
feel sure, appreciate my feelings now at the severance of the
happy official ties which have existed between myself and the
Local Sanitary Authority (first the Local Board of Health,
afterwards the District Council, and latterly the Borough
Council) for a period of nearly forty years.
