The Chairman read • letter be had received from the
Inspector of polies. stating it would be better if he could
have the men of the police fores located in one block of
buildiop instead of being dispersed over the town as at
present. In ..as of • riot it would be • matter of
difficulty for him to ge,t his men together. He suggested
that the Conical might build a Moak of boogied on the
site of the old Wesleyan chapel, Bondatreet. If the
Council would not do this then they might encourage
some private individual in the undertaking. The rent
would be sure as ri could deduct it weekly from the
