   to be used in connection with any tramway within
   the said city; the words "the said city" shall mean
   the City of Dunedin; and the word "promoter" shall

3. No license shall be issued for any tram-car unless
such tram-car is safely constructed, in thorough re-
pair, properly ventilated, and enclosed with doors,
and glazed, to the satisfaction of the said Council, or
of their Inspector duly authorized in that behalf:
Provided, nevertheless, that for cable or wire-rope

of twelve months, and no longer; but on the expira-
