ARAHURA ROAD BOARD. [to the editor.]
Sir—As a ratepayer I wish to ask, through your columns, if the above Board have taken or intend taking any steps with their official for a portion of the amount collected from Mr Lock, as came out in evidence in the case of Lock v. the Board, heard the other week at Goldsborough ? The ratepayers generally are also anxious to know why the business of the Board is not transacted at their office at Stafford, where all its members could attend, and the public be enabled to hear and know the business done ; instead of which, and in contravention of the Act and its spirit, I have proof in my possession of meetings being held turn about at itwo hotels in the Main Road, Kumara, thereby precluding every chance of knowing or hearing how and which way the money goes.—l am, &c, One of the. Victims. November 22nd, 1878.
