24 Barrington Crescent, Brixton. - Has decided to distribute 'the 250 of the Observations in London that I have printed'. The enclosed observations [no longer present] are 'therefore complete'. Much neglect at present in the construction of flues; hopes his paper 'will have some good effect' and that people 'will begin to think of their own safety'.
Found Milnes' chimneys at Fryston 'very badly constructed. One of the chimneys runs under the landing place on the first floor'. Gave instructions to 'have it well attended to as Mr and Mrs Milnes were not at home'. 'Several chimneys in many of the residences of the nobility I found very dangerously constructed'; describes a fire at one property he visited.
