I made two election pledges, both of which, as you are aware, I have redeemed. Having been present at every meeting of the Council and Committee, except when absent on public duty. I trust such diligent attention to my duties will, in a measure, compensate tor my shortcomings, which may have been "observed either by you or the citizens generally. If at any time I have displayed a warmth of feeling, or used expressions that may have caused any of you pain, kindly attribute my frailty to zeal for what I conceived the public good and under what may have impressed me as provocation In now leaving this chair, I desire to express my best wishes for you all. Life is too chequered and uncertain to lead us to import rancour into our public duties. I thank you sincerely for the careful con sideration you have bestowed on all matters that I felt it my duty to place before you, and for the forbearance you have exercised towards me. The citizens of Auckland have good cause to rejoice that their affairs are committed to such able hands as those of my successor. (Cheers.) STREETS COMMITTEE REPORT.
