Lamplighter's Report.
T<*s&»'Worship the Mayor, Sir,— As there have been complaints about certain lamps not being lit at A night, I can only say it is no fault aWL .nine, as the lamps have been properly • and carefully attended to and lit each night. The fault lies in the square ?lass frames being in a very bad con* Jition. There are some which will not keep alight on a windy night, and ' nost of them let the rain in upon the lot glass and so extinguish the lights md smash the glasses. Last night 7 glasses were broken, four of these had mly been in use one night previous, The glasses will continue to breaks ' inless the frames are repaired, so that vind and rain cannot get into the amps. Hoping something will be lone. I am, &c, _ _ . T. Chamberlain. Foxton, Feb. 6th, 1890..
