DEFERRED PAYMENT SETTLERS IN DIFFICULTY.
Invercaroill, This day
Of the deferred payment settlors in Southland no fewer than 395 are in arrears with their rents, their aggregate indebtedness being £5151. The Land Board has notified defaulters that the arrears must bo paid in one month, failing which the land is to be forfeited. Tho largeness of the arrears is attributed to the fact that the settlers cannot find a remunerative market for their oats. The Board also resolved that the residence clause of the Land Act shall for the future be more strictly enforced in the case of deferred payment selectors, it, having become known that several cases of duminyism have occurred.
