    1869 and compare the state of the town then with what it is to-day to realise how great, even with all our admitted short¬ comings, has been in the sanitary betterment of the Borough. And no one can deny but that Mr. Whitaker, through his conscientious and hard work—he worked hard up to the very end of his time in office—contributed in no small degree to the sanitary improvements which have been achieved. In conclusion, I wish to thank every member of the staff for their ever willing and valuable services, and to acknowledge the courtesy and consideration which I have received from the Chairman and Members of the Health Committee. I am, Your obedient Servant, 29th May, 1920. THOMAS GIBSON, Medical Officer of Health.
