About a month or more.
When the Sanitary Inspector, or Mr Bryan the Surveyor,181 inspected the drain, Mid he make any complaint that you

No, he did not make any complaints, but I heard from every contractor in this Colony, they must have bribes before they can get passed.
A bribe to whom ?
They did not say to whom, but they said the Sanitary people often comes, squeezes people in this Colony, and they know they must bribe before they can get

Has it never occurred to you, when you know that you 6287 have got to pay $20 for doing work that is only worth $4, to go to the Secretary of the Sanitary Board, or
the Principal Civil Medical Officer, and say "Look here,
I have to pay $20 for this, and it is only worth $4; there is something wrong here. Can you help me” ↑ No, but I went up to the Sanitary Board two or three times. I got the notice, and then I got a letter, and
then they wrote me back another letter. In a few weɑks time, they issued me two or three notices on the KAMO matter, but I say it was done already,
Who did you see at the Sanitary Board ↑
I saw Mr Woodoook.
