As regards the bricks, I submit that none of the foundations of the houses under the ground should bowald. At a confdential meeting of Sanitary Board a few days ago l expressed the the basements of horses over the dirt-saturated oplaton that the pressat plan of laying concrete in ground was wrong and that the earth should be first dug up and removed, replaced by clean soil and concrete laid afterwards. You were of opinion that the disturbing of such soll would be very dangerous and might spread disease, and the major part of the members of the Board agreed with you. It that be the case it seansa to me that the bricks and materials in the med area of Talpingehan which have been Imbedded in the ground as foundations, and~~~ there just above them, thenld not be sold but removed and placed beyond anyone's reach.
This was minated by the Medical Officer of Health:-1 gred.
By the Colonial Surgeon The wood-work. I · understand, is being burns, and it is only the bricka above the prince of the ground that are being sold.
