Note.—One architect and clerk of works was employed for homestead and farm buildings; timber, cement, ironwork, &c, was also bought, and a large amount of labour employed for both buildings, and often paid for in one account. Care has been taken in preparing this return, but it must be remembered that many of the items are only approximate ones for the reasons above stated, and also because only one general Buildings Account has been kept.
