an elected member of the Vestry during the period ended the

Burns, the colleague of Mr. James Tims, for this Division, and
Mr. T. L. Corbett and Colonel A. Rotton, Councillors for the

and have been frequently in attendance at their meetings. These
gentlemen have on several occasions supplied the Vestry with
information as to the proceedings of the Council upon matters
of local interest, which could not otherwise have been obtained,
and have also been informed of the wishes of the Vestry
upon such subjects.
