APPENDIX I.

Letter from Mr Taylor, Assistant Returning Officer of the Whitechapel Union, to Dr Southwood Smith; written at the request of the latter, for Lord Ashley's use, after their personal inspection of Bethnal Green and Whitechapel.

289 Bethnal Green Road, Feb. 5, 1842.

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.
