I see by the last meeting of the Hokianga Council re proposed bridge over the Waikirikiri Creek was brought up for discussion in reply to a letter from K. N. Leech. I might aay that a few weeks back two settlers waited on the above Council re the construction of the above bridge, offering to meet the Council with terms which were, that the settlers interested should construct the bridge and receive as payment the thirds in hand, and the balance to be paid as thirds accumulated. Such terms were received and passed by the Council. Now the Council are trying to throw cold water on the matter, by saying it would be doubtful if the settlers would be willing to complete the work with only £60 of thirds available towards a bridge that would cost £100. This bridge is really necessary, w the traffic has to go through private property.— (Utakura Correspondent.)
