The meeting was held in the County i Council chamber after the Friday session . and all the municipalities were repre- ! sented but Sarawak, Durham and Neu- 'stadt. Judue Sul^herland occupied the chair. In opeuiue the meetiog, he , referred to what bad been dune at tha meeting in November, and read over ths • questions submitted for cousideratiou^by tha people. He then, as a most oipedi- tious way of arriving at a decision, called on the representatives of the different muuicipalities In turn t.> state what h:id 1 been decided. As each wa« called h.> I gave his report, and the result was that I nearly every munioipvlily was in favor ot I a community or municipal memorial to I be erected iu the muiiicipaliiy and not a County lueiuorial.
