The Chairman of Directors (Mr J.

It might be a little more than six weeks, the time estimated by the engineer, before the dredge would be at work, Under the difficulties experienced by dredging companies all round, he thought tliey should bo _ tEankful they had got so far. He was of opinion that, from what they could hear from the engineer, they might hope to be at work within the next three months. Pie did not think there was anything in the balance sheet that called for comment. i
Mr W. T. Monkman seconded the adoption of the leport and balance sheet, the latter showing unpaid calls amounting to £324, and the motion was cairied unanimously. The Hon. T. Fergus and Mr B. Flamiery were re-elected directors, and Mr W. T. Monkman auditor ; and the meeting closed with the customary compliment to the chairman.
