REPORTS OF THE ANALYST.
Made pursuant to Act of Parliament.
Analyst's Report for the Quarter ending June 24th, 1874.
(35 & 36 Vic., cap. 74).

21, Caversham Road, London, N.W.
June 24th, 1874.
To the Vestry of Shoreditch.
Gentlemen,
During the Quarter ending June 24th, 1874,
the Inspector submitted 16 samples to me for analysis. All were duly
analysed by me.
Five of the articles were coffee. Of these three were genuine, and
two contained chicory. The amount of chicory in the samples was very
large, viz., 70 and 75 per cent. respectively.
Eleven of the samples were of tea. None of these were, in my
opinion, adulterated. The teas were mostly black, with a minute
quantity of green in a few of the samples. The green tea in the samples
was faced with a small portion of inert mineral matter, but not so as to
be injurious to the health of those drinking an infusion of the tea.
I have the honour to be,
Gentlemen,
Your obedient servant,
THOMAS STEVENSON,
Analyst.
