' \) r Next comes ACCESSIBILITY and CONVENIENCE. The 1' Ruby Bay boundary is within 70 chains of the Western Entrance 1, WJiarf, and no section would be more than three miles from that I 1 port, which steamers of the Anchor Line easily work if required. i • Then the Commercial Orchardist is as keenly aliv© to < | PLEASANT SURROUNDINGS as anyone, and in this respect 11 RUBY BAY OFFERS UNRIVALLED ATTRACTIONS.
