SCHOOL BOARD. A meeting of this Board was held on Tuesday last, when the following members were present: Messrs. C. Whiting (chairman), the Rev. Hawksley Westall, J. Pike, E. Richardson, T. Amos, and Thos. Osborne (clerk). Upon the reading of the minutes, the Rev. H. Westall protested against the resolution deposing him from office of Vice-chairman, and declared it to be illegal. He proposed that the minutes be struck out. Mr. Amos seconded. Mr. Richardson proposed that the minutes be passed as read, Mr. J. Pike seconded, and Mr. Whiting supported the proposal. The minutes were therefore passed as read. It was agreed to close the school on Friday, the 3rd. inst., and re-open on the 9th, for the Whitsuntide Holidays. The Rev. H. Westall proposed that tenders should be invited for making a case for specimens used in object lessons. It was, however, subsequently decided to give the job to Robert Nichols, for £3 10s. The Clerk reported the receipts of £11 5s. as fee Grant. Cheques were signed for £25 2. 2.
