TOKO ROAD DEPUTATION.
[To The Editor Stratford Post.] Sir, —As your report of what took place when the deputation appointed by the Toko Road ratepayers waited on the County Council may create a wrong impression, I ask space to correct in some more or less important directions. The offer made to the Council was to pay the interest on the expenditure asked for for one year (not three as the report states), and it was understood that the money would be found Ijy subscription among the ratepayers, not by separate rate. Further, not only -Mr Marfell, but the others of the deputation, Messrs C. Bayly, Evan Jones, W. Huzziff, and J. Lucena, pledged themselves to pay their rates upon receiving their demand notes so as to go a little way to relieve the Council's financial position at the end of the year. Thanking you in anticipation.—l am, etc., E. MARFELL. Toko Road, March 20, 1915.
