At Dunedin.

Copy of a letter received by the Secretary, Railway Board, from the New Zealand and South Seas Exhibition Company, Limited:—

“The Board of Directors instruct me to express their appreciation of the action of your Board in making the various concessions to visitors to the New Zealand and South Seas Exhibition.

“They feel sure that the facilities granted and concessions made have materially influenced the passenger traffic to Dunedin, and to that extent have lent powerful aid to the success of the Exhibition.

“The Directors are fully apprised of the value of the publicity afforded by your Department, and this no doubt has contributed its share to the great influx of visitors by rail to Dunedin.

“The Directors would be glad if you would convey this expression of appreciation to your Board and the Minister of Railways.”
