Thomas J. Miles, sheep inspector, wrote rela tive to the complaints against Mr Henny, of B, liamy station, for allowing his sheep to de pasture on the occupied portions of the run. Mr Heuhy had got permission from the Land Board some two years ago to occupy this run on condition that be destroyed thr rabbits thereon. As Mr Henny had • tone good work iv that direction In- suggested that the council take no action to remove the sheep.—Mr Henny wrote in a similar strain.— Cr M'Nab said Mr Henny could not possibly have got permission from the Land Board to run his sheep on the mining reserve, which was not within two miles of the run referred to by Mr Miles. The settlers complained that the com monage, more especially the mining reseive at M'Millau's Flat, was overrun with sheep. He moved—" That thecbairman authorise the ranger to remove all sheep found tresspassing on the mining reserve at M'Millan's Flat."—Cr Fraser,' in seconding the motion, said that Mr Miles ha i gone out of his way to address the council upon a matter of whi -h he knew little or nothing. M'Millau's Flat was some two miles distant, from the run which the Land Board had granted Mr Henny permission to occupy.—The motion was carried.
