0051.0599: International Development Co.

One of the latest legitimate development companies that has recently commenced business in the area.

The water-works committee are now busy with their [Fort Steel’s] year’s assessment work and are well advanced.  A circular shaft has been dug and several open cuts have been made.  There is a proverb “Never do anything in a hurry except catching fleas.”  If the committee has not adopted this as its motto, it is acting up to it.  When the water scheme is to be in full operation is a conundrum that most people have given up as past solution.
