SEDDON MEMORIAL.
By Telegraph—Press Association. GREYMOUTH, Feb. 4. At a meeting of the contributors to the Seddon memorial, to-day, it was decided that the amount, which at present totals £203 12s 6d, should be handed to the Public Trustee for investment, and that the interest be devoted to procuring two medals annually to be awarded to the most proficient boy and.girl scholars at any schools in the Grey Education District, proficiency to be determined by competitive examination. Proposals that the fund be devoted to the Post Office clock and to the,construction of swimming baths were negatived, and an offer of a bust of the late Mr Seddon by Nelson Illingworth did not meet with general acceptance.
