Wellington Land Board.
A deputation from the Wellington Fruitgrowers' Association, consisting oJ Messrs H. A.

Messrs Adams and Booth explained that they wished to transfer their sections as the original purpose ol the settlement (fruit-growing) had not been adhered to, and there was no possibility of getting a living off 20 acres, out of grazing.— The Board decided, that as the original intention of the Association could not be carried out and as the land is not fit fqr small settlement, the transfers will be granted before the new leases are issued. The reappointment qf Mr Fred Pirani as a member of tbe Roard, from 17th January, 1895, was read.

A nuiribcr of deferred thirds were p-a.ss.eid for payment tq local bodies,
