And previoue to January, you had reported the dirty 17268
state of the iron roof and gates amongst other things?
I am almost sure I did. We keep a repairs bock, which
would chew that at once.
17269
It is not just repairs, I am asking you at the moment.
That all goes into the repairs book. It is simply the
work required to be done by the P. V. D. in the
Varkets. Each month the repair book is sent up, with
all these things in it.
If it wants washing and cleansing, would the P. v. D.
cleanse it ?
No, that comes under my care.

European, and scavengin, colies.

And therefore if it is in a dirty condition, the overseer is primarily responsible ↑

Yes.

In January or February, it was so bad, I met Dr Pearas
and called his attentică to it, and he quite agreed.
It certainly was a quarter of an inch thick`on the fron
gates. How, is it not your servante' duty, - the goolios
in the market, - to keep that clean, and wash it ?
