Not in the way of that sort of thing.

At-

Largely work in connection with the reconcreting of ground surfaces, and limewashing. In my opinion that hae

got into the hands of a select few by some means.

Do you think those select few are connected in any way with the officers of the Sanitary Board, or of the

Department?

I cannot prove that, but I would not be surprised.
