stick to. (Cries of " slates, slates.") This is all in good
humour. (Roars of laughter.) I never was happier in my
life. (Renewed laughter.) Mr. Alpass was a man that
would monopolise the chairmanship of every board that he
could ; and though he did not hold a seat at that board, he
affected the chairmanship. He (Mr. Moss) had the honour
of sitting in the Town Council with their respected chair-
man Mr. Greigson, and on that occasion he hoped he had
done his duty as a public man. He would leave the board with-
out the slightest animosity to any one, and he had no desire
to take office as an overseer.

Mr. Harrison proposed that Mr. Miller be put upon the
list, and he wished to correct a error of Mr. Moss's, and
that was that there was no chairman for the burial
board.

Mr. Moss said, he was very glad to find that his friend
Mr. Miller had been nominated for the office of overseer.
Mr Miller said, he had some reluctance in havinc, his
name put on the list of overseers, and he might tell them
that he would not be one that would advocate the comfort
which Mr. Allpass had referred to. He did not think that
it would be good for the ratepayers of Tosteth Park when
the overseers were a sort of " happy family." He was one
that would try to eradicate all baseness. Mr. Allpass had
spoken against his friend, but he would say that he never
met with a more straightforward man than Mr. Moss,
though he was a little warm in his temper.
Mr. Carter seconded the nomination of Mr. Miller, which
was unanimously agreed to.
Mr. Kidd, Mr. (Irindrod, Mr. Watson, and Mr. Baynes
were also nominated, as it was customary to send to the
magistrates more names than there were vacancies. The
names were to be presented to the magistrates with a special
recommendation of the four first mentioned.
