At the time of going to press I have to record with deep feelings of personal loss the sudden death of Alderman Edward Thomas during his twentieth year of office as Chairman of the Health Committee. Alderman Thomas s intense interest in, and knowledge of, the details of Public Health work, together with his progressive outlook, were a stimulus to all with whom he came in contact. His departure from their midst will be mourned by many sections of the public to whom he devoted so much of his time. I have the honour to be, Gentlemen Your obedient Servant Medical Officer of Health. June 12th, 1934.
