Possibly it had not been brought to our notios.

Could you tell me who brought it to your notios ↑ 1418% If I saw the complaint, It seems to refer to the ganitary Board, or the Police. I can get the paper in

two minutes. -- I think it was the Police in that case,

and the Police told Mr Edwards, who is overseer.

Possibly they told him direct.

And you didnt go and see it ?

14183

I can never get through my day's work by five o'clock,

as it is.

And dont you think, where it is a matter of a dangerous structure, and human lives are in danger, and these cases are so few, that it would be well to give

up any other work you are doing, and go out and

examine them ?

I am sorry to say that these cases are not few. I put

in a whole Sunday here, and we were here one gaturday night and one Sunday examining dangerous buildings,

with the Inspectors. That is only one dangerous building

but we have a lot of them in a week.

83 Q

of late, do you mean ?

All the time I have been here.

How many of such notions, do you serve, for dangerous structures, in which you shore up and ask the owners

to refund afterwards

-

that means to say, where the

danger is so great, that you cant wait to find out who

the owner is ↑

The danger may not be so great, but the responsibility

is great.

Well, how many of these notices do you servo 9-14(87

Not so very many altogether. I think we sent out ten bills yesterday.
