The clerk was directed to offer a reward of £5 for the discovery of the offenders, and the like sum for any further destroyer of the trust property. Mr. Gillard, in pursuance of notice given by him at the previous meeting at Totnes, moved that the resolution carried at Newton in October last should be rescinded, and that Mr. Watts should carry his tramway across the Kingsteignton road from his Clay-works, in accordance with a resolution of the trustees at a meeting held for the special purpose in 1851 Totnes.

Mr. Whiteway seconded this amendment. …
