Moss. j _ j It is proposed to form the above com- | pany for the purpose of purchasing j all the promoters' rights to the | Dobson's Creek Water Race. i The detail survey and estimates of I the race have been carefully completed ! by competent and experienced sur- | veyors, and their reports state that by | the construction of the race and a reser- ! voir a constant sipply of ten Government heads can be depended upoa all the year round, which can be brought oa to Hayes's and Qninn's terraces sufficiently high to be used either for sluicing or washing paddocks. The Provisional Directors propose, j before registering the company, to have | the levels checked by E. J. Lord, Esq, ; who will also prepare the specifications I for the works. | It is proposed to commence operations immediately after receiving Mr 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 j have a great advantage in bringing in i water to Hayes's and Quinn's Terraces, I it being the only water that can be j 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 time there are over fiftv paddocks erected, besides several sluicing claims, which the Race would command.
