(to the editor of the akaroa mail.)
Sir, —Would you permit me, through your columns, to convey one more bit of advice to the intermeddler of Robinson's Bay school, and that is, to mind his own business a little more, and not interfere with things he does not understand and nothing to do with. He was the first to distort and misconstrue my letter, which was purely intended to defend a public right, not to discuss what had its origin in his own fit of jealousy—his raking up a quarrel long past between neighbors is a bright trait in his character. Verily, he is not a peacemaker, as it had nothing'to do Avith the present affair ; and in that long past there is no shame lies at my door; as I was thrice summoned for crossing Libeau's unfenced land which shows the spite on the other side, and I may be Well known but treated with no less respect on that account. —Yours, &c,
THOMAS MARTINDALE,
