For form of tender apply at the Colonial Secretary's Office.

The successful tenderer will be required to sign a formal contract containing conditions to be prescribed by the Board and also to give security by two sureties to the satisfaction of His Excellency the Governor in the sum of $500; failing compliance with these require- ments the sum deposited with the tender will be forfeited.
