 Town Surveyor Reported Mr. Chairman & Gentlemen As requested I inspected the ruins in Ballymacormick graveyard and I consider it would take £18 to repair it. We have had considerable trouble from time to time claiming the drain pipe at the back of your houses on St. Nicls Road. I asked on a previous occasion to have the tenants noticed to be particular as to what they put into it. I had to get a new sink trap to replace one taken away and slates and ridge tiles have been broken on some of the privies. Dr Mayne reported a case of fever on 8th Joseph's Road. The family have been isolated and the place disinfected. Your obdt Servant Joseph Slevin 4th July 1916 Longford, Ireland A letter from Thomas W.
