Lands awaiting distribution in the neighbourhood of Mace, near Westport, comprise one estate of 29 acres. Proceedings for the resumption of a 39-acre holding have reached the final stages and it is expected that possession will be taken this Thursday.

The preparation of allotment proposals for the lands already on hands has been deferred pending examination of the possible acquisition of other lands in the area, so that a comprehensive plan of land settlement can be prepared.
