Local repairs shall be done or not when they are required. - proceed to give a few notes of things I saw in certain localities, which notes are applicable to very many other places.
20 Tak On Lane. Ground floor of houses unsound, upper floors open spaces between the boards, so that neither floor admits of proper cleaning.
The kitchens pokey little holes, overcrowded and occupied by pigs, they being considered fit and proper places by Inspector of Markets to the people who have licences.
Slabs at the upper end of this Lane out of repair underneath which are cavities containing liquid and putrid filth.
Open space below Staunton Road and East of Jung Hing Theatre used as a place to shoot all sorts of rubbish, a disgusting stench pervading the place.

Pound Lane, South bad filth, no drainage, four cases of Small Pox recurred here this year.
Broken floors containing puddles of filth from which a stench enough to make one sick, outsider cannot help but sink into standing pools of filth in open drains: Tanks sunk in the ground floors of these houses containing filthy water, in which vegetables were being washed for the markets, also bean curd being made for the markets.

Rutters Lane. Cavities of a passage about 18 feet wide paved with large stones with large cavities beneath them into which I could poke my walking stick up to the handle without finding bottom. These cavities containing black and putrid liquid filth.
The houses horribly filthy and having pigs in them, in one house three children just recovered from Small Pox.
At the top of this lane are open spaces in which all rubbish is shot. Four wells in this space which all receive the drainage from the rubbish collected about. From three of the wells the water being used only for cleaning clothes and vegetables, and the fourth used for drinking.
Drains of houses generally in bad state of repair.
Along the back of the houses in Upper Station Street, a horizontal wooden trough about six feet above ground, which is used for conveying away refuse water from the houses, this is not in good repair and leaks the filthy water down with water trickling down and polluting the wall.
Lyndhurst Terrace 1874 - polluting the walls of the homes and every page.
The foundation of the houses looks anything but safe. The inhabitants expect them to tumble down before long; the houses in front of them have already done so.
Back of Market Street, Jaiping Lane a gully three feet wide down which an open drain runs the black, fetid filth trickling slowly along or standing in puddles.
Back of Tank Lane, a gully with no name in upper and lower rooms and in holes sunk in the foundations of houses, places filthy buckets of putrid rubbish standing about outside the houses. In the midst of puddles of filth in the broken pavement.
