Letters from Mrs. William Sayers and Mrs Paul Dubois com- plained about the nuisance created by a large number of cats kept by Miss Grace .Thompson, Centre St. West. ‘ Forty Cats A‘ Nuisance Say Neighbours a The letters estimated the num- ber of cats kept by Miss Thomp- son as between thirty and forty and said that neighbours suffered from the stench created and from the noise of howling cat fights. Council has a Evy-law licensing and regulating dogs, but nothing at all.which in any way would reg- ulate the number of cats 'which may be kept in one place. It was decided it was a matter for the Board of Health and the letters of complaint were referred to that body and to the village solicitor.
