Speaking on the report of 'lie Couoiy , Roads Comnilttea ix preaenied to the j County Council, Mr. Boy.i object«d to ' what had been <l'ine with the secsnd outfit. At a previous sessinc it had been decided to move the maehinery :o Flesh- i ertou and not have it at Dundalk, where, I he charged, " it was fooling away the county's money." He further stated that Mr. Hockridge got permission to use the county machinery and when he was through left it by the roadside all winter. Mr. Boyd charged, " to my; knowledge even the msgr.ero was left ouc | all winter. The charge is denied through the press, but no one denies that the machinery was left after it was taken from thH storage built by Mr. Purvis. In April Mr. Purvis went out and found the magneto on the tractor and the radiator burst with the fiost. That ii no way to treat the county after being given a privilege. " Mr. Hockridge said that be had re- ceived permission to. use '.he machinery on the road that needed repair badly.and the machinery was iu use until on in January, when the Jeep snow made it impossible to return the machinery. He himself had covered the county's property with a special tent and bad seen that ever> thing was in good shupe. Regard ing the magneto, he said it had been kept IU a housd and put back just before Mr. Purvis came. Anyway, the magneto or the radiator bad never #orked rieht. Mr. Boyd objected to the statement that tlis machinery bud been in bad shape when it left the county's hands. The foreman, Mr. McKeozie, who vns helping Mr. Hockridge to deny any cuifability, had toid the Warden and himself that the trac:or was working beautifully the last day it wis used. Mr. McTavish stated that he saw iho tractor and the radiator wiih seven pipes burst where the water must havu been left in. The magneto too must have been left out where it would get wet, for no harm would come to it from cold alone. " I think the man who told Mr. Hockridge that he took the magneto off didn't know what he was doing â€" he must have taken a wheel off If Mr. Hock- ridge not the machinery to do a certain piece of work, he should have been man enough to return the machinery at the stipulatad time of lune lOth while it was not ri-turn»d yet. Robert Purvis was walling for the machinery to d i work for the couuty,ai]d has to lay men ctF beciu.-e of the lielay.'' Mr. Calder in referring to the " tem- pest in the teapot," said that things had got now to such A state that the servants and otUcials were takiiii> tides and he recommended â- > wholesale discbarjje. He went over the whole affiir am' ended by saying that it whs very deplorable that the matter had been aired in the Press. The Wiiidfu understood ih.it originally the machinery at Dundalk was to be moved to Flesherton as soon as the roads were ready in the .ipnng. Later from Toronto ho and Mr. Buyd had given orders that tlio machinery wa." to go to Rock Blills but the Proton people refused to let it go. The commiUee then agreed that it would bo left until June lOtb Then fuither road had been graded and h« thought there was still two weeks' work tp be Jone. The Warden agreed that the machin ery bed been all right in the fall and concluded by sayin*;, " I think undue advantage has been taken of holding the machinery in Piotou." !^H5HH!
