The original text has been reordered for better readability. The first paragraph now starts with "No 2 of 1883." and "PEAK TRAMWAY." as it seems to be the correct order. The section "260 differences between company and Director of Public Works." is placed at the top, and the subsequent sections are reordered accordingly. The missing section title "Settlement of differences" is added for section 8. The original text is preserved as much as possible while making it more readable.
