There had been a. certaiu Tc-arrange-nient of-the ground since their last meeting, 'i'liero was a large portion of ground alongside the c'-jim which was lying idle, and which' it was thought advisablo to secure. II: was decided to cut oft some oi the old ground that had been worked, n-lso some' of the ground which* was not considered to be worth working. There was now a claim over SO acres in urn, which -was believed to be payable. The amount paid in wages was a big item with the company. Within the last three months it was found possible to do away with (ho scrvioos of two ot the' uoxmen, and that meant a saving; ot aboul. £3 per week, or about' £250 a year. The dredge was now in a good state of repair, and tho dredgemaster was satisfied iliaf, provided, (hern were no unforseon 'accidents, there would be 110 great expense 'for some time. Mr Pettifrcw, their dredgemaster, had' recently run down in health, and it was suggested that lie should 1-3-ko a holiday. This );o accordingly did, ami went to, tlie West Coast, where he still -was. Tho man iii charge' of the dredge during bis temporary "absence was well acquainted with everything on i tho dredge and witli Mjo claim. Mr James Brown seconded the motion for the, adoption of thoToport and balance sheet-. The history of' the company would, reveal a condition of affairs' that must be considered Pfl-tisfaotory—lGi per share having been returned in the v.-ay of dividends since -registration.

But gold (IreduiiiK was a precarious industry. Judging by lb Hesscy's report they would soon be able to resume-the payment of dividends. The i-enort and balance sheet were adopted without' dissent. The retiring director (Mr William Hesscy) was re-elected, and the directors' remuneration was made the'same as bst. year. Mr James Brown was mppointed auditor at the same fee as previously. -

Mr Brown said he had always been of. opinion that the company was weil served by its dredgemasier. .- In view of Hie fact tintthe work had told on the dredgemaster's health lie thought some' appreciative resoliition should be placed on record. He moved— "That, this meeting regrets that the health of Mr Prtligrew (the company'* dredgemaster) has suffered by over-exertion,' and hopes 'that his holiday oil (lie Coast may have the effect of speedily restoring his health so as to perra mi of 1119 . rMmilin g duty at any early date."
