  to take what available land

  was left which included the 

  Hill. For sometime the idea was

  to sublet the Hill but it was left 

  in abeyance. The main factor that

  induced the committe to take all 

  the remaining land was that the 

  fencing, etc would cost more than

  ploughing etc. of the whole plot. 

  It was passed to take this plot. 

  So the committe saw that we had

  the land ploughed + harrowed, also

  that we purchase the seed potatoes. 

  Unfortunately at this juncture some 

  of the members took plots of their own.
