Engineer E. W. Shifflitt of Gamsby and Mannerow of Guelph told Mr. Darling the cost of the tile on his land 'is divided between him and as an outlet for the people above hitt. Mr. Shift- litt commented that there was little land above him to be as- sessed. He also said that the catch basin above Mr. Darling would be assessed to him, but not the one below. Mr. Darling had signed the petition for an outlet. Mr. Shifflitt said council was then obligated to work on the drain and now the assessment is more than Mr. Darling figured. He agreed that the work is not really justified un- less the whole farm is tiled, which Mr. Darling's is not. Total assessment to Mr. Darling is $2,833. Councillor Brian McBurney ob- jected the motion while Deputy Reeve of Morris Township Thomas Miller sat in the court of revision and agreed to reject the appeal. Two tenders for work on the Henderson Drain were pro- visionally accepted as council must wait two weeks before let- ting any work on the drain.

Council rescinded a past mo- tion to donate $150 td the Bluevale Community Hall Board's repairs on the hall roof and decided to pay for the cost of materials on the roof minus the $150 Morris Township has donated. Board chairman Keith Moffat said enough volunteer labor could be found to repair the roof, Mr. Moffat attended the meet- ing to discuss the hall with council. He said the hall was not paying for itself and doubted any would be interested if it were to close down. "There would be a few to grumble," he said, "but not much would be done about it." Councillor Brian McBurney said council did not want to close the hall. Reeve Don Eadie said it is up to the people of the com- munity to work for the hall and use it if they want the hall to remain.
