NOTICE

THE attention of Settlers is directed to the following communication from the Inspector of Thistles, and their co-operation with that officer is earnestly solicited in enforcing the law relating to the eradicating of Thistles.

J. WILLIAMSON,

Superintendent.

Auckland, 18th Feb., 1860.

Sir,—I have the honour to report for your information that I find it to be impossible without the co-operation of the settlers to carry out the provisions of the Thistle Act so thoroughly as is desirable.

I would refer more particularly to the different contracts which have been taken to eradicate them in the sub-districts.

I would therefore take the liberty to suggest that your Honour would give some notice that it would be necessary for the efficient working of the contracts that settlers should forward information to the Inspector relative to the existence of Thistles.

I have the honour to be,

Sir,

Your obedient servant,

F. D. BRON.

Inspector of Thistles.

To his Honor the Superintendent.

After Parliament moved to Wellington in 1865, the Auckland Provincial Council sat in General Assembly House (depicted).

It was nicknamed the 'Shedifice' as it was large and drafty, with a leaking roof. First premier Henry Sewell described it as 'a great wooden barnshaped affair, which might serve for a Hospital, a Jail, or a Barrack'.
