And the supply from the main leading from the Military Tank to the Barracks, have been accepted and the care of the supply surrendered to the Military Authorities. His Excellency The Governor was aware how miserably this supply has failed. The Barracks being at the lowest level, no supply could, by possibility, be given to Government House or Offices while the water was drawn off below. Indeed, it was never turned on till 3.30 P.M. and never reached Government House until 8 P.M., and more frequently towards the latter end of the year, never reached it at all, so that I found it necessary to propose that an independent supply be provided for these buildings soon after I entered upon the

duties of this office. In the early part of the present year I was instructed by His Excellency to propose a plan for such supply and that plan has been since carried out so far as regards Government House, and so soon as some cast iron pipes, which have been ordered, arrive from England, Government Offices can also be plentifully supplied. To obtain this supply I have laid down a 5 inch main from the Glen Elly Tank as far as the Road in front of Glen Elly House so as to enable me to supply the Gaol with a high pressure service if necessary, and a 3 inch main runs along the Road from the entrance to Glen Elly House to the branch pipe leading from the Main attached to the
