The minutee of the last meoting'we'reread and confirmed, and the Bank balance reported at'£l4 2s 10(3. A letter was read from: the Commissioner of Police, permitting the Board to have the use of the pit on the terms previously offered. The chairman stated that for every load they took out tfyey should put in three. He had since seen the policeman, who was willing, having received a letter to send any recommendation from the Board. It was resolved that the Board would cause all logs adjacent to be thrown in to fill up the vacancy caused by the gravel taken out, and notify that any debris from the neighborhood could also be placed thero, A letter was received from the Treasury Department, reporting that 5s had been paid to the credit of the Board, The chairman reported ho had consulted with the chairman of the Highway Board, and it had been agreed that the outstanding balances should be set off the one against the other, and that for the future the cost of laying off and maintenance ,of the boundary roads the sum specified should be borne by the two Boards in equal proportions. This was agreed to subject to a formal acceptance from the Highway Board being sent to this Board. The following accounts were passed for payment:—J. Pay ton & Co., fills 6d; Book & Elliott, £1; G.

The chairman informed the applicant that his application would bs considered. An offer was laid before the Board from Mr Sullivan, offering to sell them half an aero of land for a gravel pit, and to fence in the same at his own expense for £4O. The acceptance of the offer was advocated by Mr Parker, who statpd he had work to do in that portion of the district, and if he had to obtain gravel elsewhere it would cost as much for the specific work to which he referred as the Board would have to pay on account of the pit. It was ultimately resolved that the matter be left in the chairman's hands, and that he negotiate for a gravel pit in the locality ; on the most advantageous terms. Mr Aplin's tender for covering ditch and formation of footpath on the western side of the'main road was accepted at £5 per chain, if the gravel could be obtained from the police reservo pit, £6 10s if it had to be taken from Brooklyn Itoad.
