A meeting of the Brunner Advisory Board was held at the Public Trust Office yesterday afternoon, there being present Messrs Matheson (chair), Cimpbell, McLean, Creagh, Russell and Byall.

Applications were made by several widows for a continuance of the allowances now paid to them on account of children reaching the limit age, viz 16 years, but as the Public Trustee has ruled that he has no authority to order the Trust Dept to continue the allowance beyond the age of 16 years, no recommendation was made.
