The principle was an important one as there was no security in the future, if such a proceeding was to be continued. He was about to strengthen his point when stopped by the Fresident, and was not allowed to do so. There was no security in the future for the members of the I oard that in the event of their arriving at any desistun one or two members might not take it upon them selves to send to the Government a report entirely different from the real decision of the
full Board.
Hamrollock agreed with Mr. Hewelt, re- marking that before anything was communicat- ed to Government as purporting to be the decision of the Board, the full Board should he consulted. He did not quite understand why the matter was not brought up at the last meeting of he, Board.
