Sutton (Mahakipawa), new members. He also extended a cordial welcome to Sergeant Allsop and Constable Bourke, and included in the welcome the member for the district, Mr E. P. Meachen. The report and balance-sheet disclosed a satisfactory financial position, and were adopted on the motion of Mr Sutton, seconded by Mr F. Broughan. Votes of condolence were passed to the relatives of Messrs P. J. Galliers and A. M. Thomson, the members standing in respectful silence. A tribute was paid to Mr Galliers's services.
