Mr. Foray tlio said he hud a recollec tion of moving absolution in tho cniin- cil that the town accept half of the present rate from tho hoard, which would mean about tfUT.AO that it would cost tho Hoard. .1, A.

Mr. Fnrt.j the said that could not be donu without a notice to amend the by-law, On turning up the niiuutos.it was found thai a resolution was passed on .Itine'Jnd, oH'cniig tlit water at halt the present rate.

A. llicks thought tho council should pay Mr. Naylor for culvert that thoy told him to put in. The Koovo said they would have to rescind tho resolution passed at the former mooting. Essox served GoHllold North and Maidstone with tho plana which tlioy udoptod. If Mr. Irwin wants to compel tlio town to go accord ing to the planH he could do eo.
