Mr A. W. Mountfort, delegate for the Rangitikei Union, waited on the meeting and explained that his tlnion Jwero anxious to have their boundary tended to the Wangaelm river.—Resolved that a sub-committee consisting of Messrs Tilley, Craig, and Gray he set up to inquire into the matter and report at the next meeting. The Wanganui Union adopted a similar course last year in the matter of the Sub-Union’s by-laws, and on inquiries being lately made it was found that the Committee had neglected to meet.
