A meeting of subscribers was held at the "National Hotel" on Saturday last, for the purpose of deciding what steps were necessary to erect suitable saleyards. Mr Kirkwond, who occupied the chair stated that the Government had given permission to place the yards on the reserve asked for. He also said that Mr A Buokland had promised to supply them with plans to work by. After some discussion it was decided to proceed with the erections as soon at possible.
