The detail survey' and of the race have been carefully completed by competent and experienced Bur* veyors, and their reports,, state that-.by :the construction of the race and a reser* voir a constant supply of ten, .Govern* ment heads can be depended upon : all the year round, which can be brought on to Hayes's and Quinn's terraces sufficiently high to be used either for sluicing ott washing paddocks. The Provisional Directors propose, before registering the company, to have the levels checked by E. J. Lord, Esq, who will also prepare the specifications for the works. It is. proposed to commence operas tions immediately after receiving M* Lord's report. There will be an immediate return from the Race after the construction of the first mile and a-half or two miles, as three good tributaries are intersected within that distance. This company will have a great advantage in bringing in water to Hayes's and Quinn's Terraces, it being the only water that can be brought in high enough at anything like a reasonable cost. The terraces have been proved payable for a mile and a-half, and at the present lime there are over fifty paddocks erected, besides several sluicing claims, which the Race would command* FORM OP APPLICATION fcOR SHARES* To the Provisional Directors of the Dobson's Creek Water-race and Gold* mining Co, Westbrook, County of Grey, New Zealand. 187? k Gentlemen, I request you will allot me shares in your company, and I agree to accept the same, or any less number of shares that may be allotted to me, Bubject in all things to the Articles of Association > and I hereby authorise,you.to.enter my name on the Register of Shareholders in respect of the Bhares so allotted, and I undertake to sign the Articles of Association for the shares that may be so allotted to me when called upon to do SO> .-.- ;!'•■ '; '- ■' •! ,: ; I enclose herewith being the amount of deposit of 10s per share on Bhares.
