MY DEAR DOCTOR,--Lord Ashley, the Honorable Mr Ashley, and yourself visited the following places with me. I have arranged them in the form of a table: in one column is the name of the street, and, opposite, a brief notice of its condition, with an occasional remark by which his Lordship may recognise it. Apologising for the length of time that has elapsed since I promised to forward this account to you, I remain, dear Doctor, Your Obedient Servant, T. TAYLOR. _First Visit._ Back of Chester Place. Open ditch and several pigsties. Pitt Street. A wretched road, no drainage. Hon. Mr Ashley spoke to one of the inhabitants respecting the state of the road. Burnham Square. Houses built on undrained ground. Grosvenor Street, Bonner Street. Undrained houses on one side not supplied with water (all the houses on this estate, to the amount of about 200 or more, in the same condition, the inhabitants having to go to a distant pump or beg of their neighbours, who have had it laid on at their own expense, and who for giving it are liable to punishment). Bonner Street has an open ditch in front of part of it. Pleasant Place. Road a perfect quagmire. Green Street. Stagnant water on southern side and also on part of the northern. Baker Street, Digby Street. Houses back to back, consisting of two rooms, each one above the other. Privies close to windows of lower rooms. Baker's night-yard is in this street. James Street. Another night-yard. Bethnal Green Road (eastern end). No drainage, many of the houses having 10 inches to 2 feet of water in the cellars, which are from 3 feet to 3 feet 8 inches only below the level of the road. Sanderson's Gardens. Houses on each side below the level of the pathway, which has a gutter in the middle. (Lord Ashley spoke to one of the inhabitants of this place.) Pitt Street, Bethnal Green Road. A narrow street with only surface drainage. (Fever was very prevalent here.) Cambden Gardens. Houses built on the soil, many of them not being larger than an 8-feet cube, are inhabited. Lamb's Fields. An acre at least of complete marsh and three open ditches--one on the north, another in the middle, and the third to the eastern side close to the backs of the houses in North Street. London Street. Undrained. Rupia Lane. Two open ditches. Ann's Place. Open sewer in front of some of the houses. Houses at the back of Ann's Place. The open sewer from Ann's Place passes beneath one of the houses and then is again open to the houses at the back, but is boarded in so that Lord Ashley had to mount a boundary stone to obtain the view of it. A group of streets to the north of Slacky Road. All the houses stained with damp to a height varying from 1 to 2 or more feet. Warmer Place. An open sewer in front of the houses giving off bubbles of gas very freely.
