Description | The flock of sheep and goats, sheltered by the above-stated persons in their homes located on the gates of Harem-i Şerif within the city, emits an exceedingly unpleasant odour, polluting the air, as stated by the doctor, and giving a considerable harm to the people living in nearby houses. It has become really impossible to pass the street due to the odour of these animals. Therefore, it is appropriate to relegate the matter to the Municipal Police to warn the concerned persons in order to take this aforementioned flock to an appropriate place outside the city, to inform that unless they were taken out within fifteen days, they would be done so by the Council, and that the resultant costs would be obtained from the animal owners. The 23rd of Nîsân (1)308 (5th of May 1892). [3 signatures] |
