The supply of pure water to the poor in their own
&lento:iv on Sundays and other days is a matter of para-
mount circuity; they should not be obliged to "hunt
about" and " beg" for water. Let n 4 hear what the people

"The people are forced to run about and big fur water;
that tlity do : I have to do sa myself, so 1 know. Very

'venire we shall not have • drop of water." The south

nanny; in various directions, the filth is very great, and

two untranped hullyholes ; the people had complained in

be su:Ac.••nt to stop the escape of the poisonous gam. In

aten, st,pped; • young man, the son of the occupant. at

days he died of a raging fever! The death of the son killed
