Some apprehension has lately been felt in Petone respecting

the encroachment of the Hutt river towards the short section

of stop-bank recently erected by the Borough Council on Mr.

Mudgway''s property. It will be of interest to residents to

know that the contrator for the river protection works will

start work in that locality almost immediately.
