To obtain through legislative enactments remedies for the evils which result from the present imperfect sanitary condition of the Metropolis, more particularly those arising from the condition of the dwellings of the labouring population, the non-removal of refuse, the prevalence of public and private nuisances, the unrestricted toleration of noxious trades and manufactures, the defective water supply, the surcharged state of the grave-yards, and from other deleterious agencies. Aid may be rendered to the Association:— 1. By promoting the formation of Branch Associations hi the various Parishes and Districts of the Metropolis. 2. By petitioning the Legislature. 3. By spreading abroad, by Lectures and otherwise, a knowledge of the advantages which will be conferred on society through efficient Health Laws. 4. By Donations and Subscriptions. An Annual Subscription of 1/. Is. and upwards, or a Donation of 5/. 5s. constitutes a Member.
