Correspondence.
To tie Editor oftJie Lyttelton Times. Sir, —Allow me through your columns to draw the attention,of those in authority to the present dangerous state of the Bridle Path near Evan's Pass, dangerous alike to, man and beast. The Prisoners at work now, widening the upper part of the Bridle Path, throw the earth and stone down, and entirely fill up the Road below ; whereas in five minutes each day the Prisoners, on their return home, might remove the loose material so as to render travelling safe. This being the only outlet from Sumiier valley to Lyttelton, and now daily used for packing over as well as riding, surely it is not too much to expect- that life and property should be regarded. I am, Sir, Yours truly, JOHN T. PARKINSON.
