Mr D. Baird (knapdale), wrote stating that he had been injured and had incurred medical expenses through being knocked down by a run-away horse which had been out of control during the ring events. He claimed that the association had been negligent in not closing the entrance to the ring. The letter was referred to a subcommittee to deal with.
It was decided to confer with the Stock Agents’ Association to decide on the dates for the ram fair, as the date originally selected would clash with the Canterbury fair.
