Parish Council. On Monday last, Nov 26th, a meeting of the parish Council was held in the Council Schools. Members present: Mr. T. Osborne, J.P. (chairman), Mr. J. E. Whiting (vice-chairman) Mr. W. T. Clarke, Mr. A. Clarke, Mr. W. Markham, and Miss E. M. Rainbow (clerk). Permission was granted to the ex-Service Men’s Association to fix a lamp on the Carrington Hall. It was decided to have the invalid’s chair, that had recently been given to the parish, repaired, and an estimate which was read by the chairman was accepted. A discussion took place respecting the entrance to the Carrington Hall, and the members agreed to have the path and gate repaired, and also that the furniture in the Hall should be repaired also, the supervision of the work to be left to the chairman. A letter from the Royal Buckinghamshire Hospital, Aylesbury, soliciting contributions, was read. As Northampton is the local hospital for the parish the members decided not to launch a contributory scheme as suggested in the correspondence.
