Your Commitee on Sanitation to whom was referred Mrs. M. A. Gardenr's petition for rebate of impounding fee, beg leave to report that the City Pound Master did nothing more than his duty, when he put said cow in the city pound and as the cow was in charge of a paid herder whoes duty was to protect said property. Therefore, would recommend that the petitioner look to the herder for redress.
