Provincial Secretary’s Office,
Christchurch, 2nd August, 1854.

the Lord Bishop of New Zealand.

Mr. James Fisher to be Master of the
District School, at Riccarton.

Mrs. Mary Dixon, to be Mistress of the
District School, at Christchurch Quay.

WANTED, a schoolmaster to take
charge of the District School at
Papanui. Terms, £80 per annum, and

ecute their contracts at the times most convenient to themselves. I think the road
might be made with the labour at present
in the settlement without any serious pressure being felt in consequence.

  1. In conclusion I would beg to say
    that I think the construction of the road
    just described would fully provide for the
    traffic of the Province for some years to
    come, and that it appears to me to be the
    only plan by which a temporary communication between the Port and the Plains can
    be effected in the present state of the settlement.
