Ladies and gentlemen,— At the request of several Burgesses I am induced to offer myself as a candidate to fill one of the vacant seats at your Borough Council and Harbor Board. I ceme forward as an independent Candidate, not under any tie or influence to any clique or private interests.

My sole aim will be to further the progress of the town of Gisborne in the most economic and substantial manner possible. If elected I shall work strongly against any proposition for any works, or appropriation of public money, that may tend in any way to further private interests; and against any outlay in the formation of rojds where the funds will not allow of them being finished, as I know from experience that such formations are nothing more than a waste of public money. I shall always advocate any feasible plan for

any water supply, and also any sanitary scheme that will improve the healthiness of the town. In fact, ladies and gentlemen, I shall always go straight for progression, coupled with economy. Hoping to secure your votes and interests, I am your obedient servant, DUNCAN HEPBURN. Aberdeen Road, Feb. 1, 1883. TO THE BURGESSES OF THE BOROUGH OF GISBORNE.
