Correspondence was read from Mr Luther, that as the Board was not satisfied with work done he was willing to reduce the amount claimed.—The offer was accepted. A further communication was received from Mr D. E. Finlayson (for Finlayson Brts.) relating to the supply of sand for formation on Owens' road. The wrifer asked the Board to comply with his demands.—The Board having already dealt with the matter no action was taken. Mr D. B. Livingstone wrote re purchase of old bridge timber.—Left over pending inspection. Mr Haycock was authorised to get some channels cleaned out on Marshall's road.

Livingstone to confer with the partits.
