KATIKATI ROAD BOARD
TO THE EDITOR. Sir, — In the annual report of the Katikati Road Board, published in your issue of the 7th instant, the chairman, Captain Hugh Stewart, asks those .settlers who signed the Petition to do away with the Road Board, being induced by false representations, to reconsider their decision. Having had charge of that petition, I beg to state publicly that no pressure of any sort was put on those who signed it beyond the very patent reason that tho double rate was superfluous and that its mode of working 1 did not meet with the approval of all the ratepayers. I am, however, confident that the ugly expression fa he representations was inserted inadvertently and that Captain Stewart intended merely to express his opinion that those who started that Petition did so on principles with which he could not coincide. — I am, &c, Aimiuß W. Fishek. Katikati, May 15th, 188/5.
