XCVlll. « ABSTRACT OF PROCEEDINGS. 



One of the speakers referred to the case of waters that 

 developed a bad odour and emitted gases in the pipes, he 

 considered the trouble could be cured and the water purified 

 by bacterial treatment in a form of septic tank, and after 

 that by intermittent filtration. 



The Chairman in putting the vote of thanks to the 

 meeting expressed the great pleasure he had experienced 

 in presiding at such an excellent discussion, and hoped it 

 would be the precursor of others. 



The Session then terminated. 



Unfortunately the diagrams which were very interesting 

 cannot be printed.
