Excerpt from The Sanitary News, Vol. 1: Healthy Homes and Healthy Living, a Semi-Monthly Journal of Sanitary Science; November 1, 1882-April 15, 1883 Pullman, the latest and most promising suburb of Chicago, is a model town in a sanitary sense.

All the build ing are of brick and constructed in as substantial a manner as possible. The plan of sewerage was determined upon, and the laying of sewers begun in the fall of 1880, under the supervision of Benezette Williams, engineer of the water and sewerage works for Pullman. Mr. Williams gave a detailed account of this system and its workings before the Society of Civil Engineers in Chicago, recently, and the facts in this account are taken from his paper.
