    Previous action of the Health Department on the specific instances of insanitary conditions recorded by the sanitary Officers. With reference to the specific instances given by the Sanitary Officers I have had reports submitted to me by the Superintendents of Conservancy, and for information they are annexed as Exhibits X. Y. I. It will be seen from these reports that the examples given by the Sanitary Officers have with very few exceptions been all dealt with by the Health Department previous to the appointment of the Medical Board, and that had the Health Departments recommendations been carried out these insanitary conditions would not have been found. I have the honour to be. Your obedient servant, W. J. SIMPSON, M. D., January 12tk, 1897. Health OfUcer:
