During the year much extra work was thrown on the Staff
of the Department by the Flooding of the River Thames in
January, 1928, and by the Small-pox outbreak which extended
from March to July, and I wish to place on record the able
manner in which all members of the Staff carried out the extra
duties which they were called upon to perform.
I am,
Your obedient Servant,
F. G. CALEY.
