was ultimately withdrawn by the Appellants, upon payment
of the Fine and Costs.
The Churchwardens and Overseers receiving
Ward No.2 Collecting Districts, resignation, owing to failing health, of Mr.
J. C. Bradley as a Collector, recommended that No. 2 Ward
be divided into two Collecting Districts, that two Collectors
be at once appointed for such Districts, and that a Special
Vestry be convened for rescinding any resolution, so as to
enable the Vestry to carry out the proposed alteration.
The Vestry authorised the Churchwardens and Overseers
at once to advertise for two collectors, and to bring up
the names of four selected candidates to the Vestry; and
also to prepare and submit to the Vestry a scheme for the
division of the Ward into Collecting Districts.
In accordance with such recommendation a Special
Meeting of the Vestry was held, and the division of the
Ward made. Messrs. T. W. Stevenson and H. G. Picken
were appointed respectively Rate Collectors for the new
districts.

such advertisements twenty-one applications were received,
