 The council passed a resolution which provides for an agreement with the Sloss Sheffield, company relative to tract of land through which the new county road will be built, this company having agreed to allow the road to pass through their land upon the condition they were not forced to pay for city improve ments within 10 years

practice Of law and in addition began
to gain renown as an author on legal
subjects: his works on 5urisprudence
and torts are used as the text for
these subjects at the University OF
Oxford and Cambridge. From Har-
ward he received the famous Ames
medal as q recognition of his work In
contributing to legal knowledge. This
medal Sir Salmond considers one OF
the achievements Of his life and de.
clares that It has always filled him
with q sense Of pride and gratinca-
ton. In 1897 he was appointed pro-
fessor Of law at Adelaide University.
Australia Returning again to New
Zealand, in 1906. he was appointed
parliamentry craftsman to the New
Zealand government. which post he
filled for three years, when he was
appointed solicitor general for New
Zealand. and in 1890 he was chosen to
fill vacant place on the bench of the
supreme court Of New Zealand.
During the war Sir John was the
legal adviser to New Zealand and
guided her through the difficulties Of
huge and numerous war contracts
dealing with the sending of vast food
supplies to the allies in addition to
complex constitutional questions aris-
ing from the novel situations due to
wars emergencies. When Sir John is
not studying the various problems
that come before him in his judicial
capacity he dearly loves a game or
two OF bridge to pass away the time
or to sit and converse with friends
over q good Havana cigar.
