Saundess objected to shis hbaving been done at special meetings of council called during business hours. His arguments, strong as we believe they were, did not weigh with the Council. A motion drawn up by Counâ€" cllior Saunders, seconded by Coun Mcâ€" Kechnie, brought an amendment by Calderâ€"Furnesux urging delay till steps had been taken to clear the ticle, The amendment was voted down and the yeas and nays being called for it stood 2 to 6. The motion was then about to be passed when reeve Oalder polnred out a grave defect in the wording which implied that the town had porchased the property. _ Drawâ€" ing up a new motlon caused more deâ€" lay and in the midst of it a motion to adjourn was made by Caiderâ€"Lloyd.
