Eight of the 25 oysters from the Conimicut Point bed or 32 per 
cent, were infected with 2B. coli, and Bact. lactis-aerogenes was found 
in three of the specimens. 
Returning to the eastern shore, a number of oysters were collected 
on the layings directly south of Nayatt Point, at about the same dis- 
tance from the Fields Point sewer as those taken from the Conimicut 
side. The channel keeps well over to the eastern shore at this point 
in the river, and consequently the Nayatt beds are planted in about 
20 feet of water and in the course of a much stronger tide than 
that which sweeps the Conimicut shore. Fewer oysters from this bed 
were found to be infected with sewage bacteria than from any of the 
beds previously examined. The accompanying table gives the results 
of these analyses:
