"AN ENEMY'S DODGE."
To the Editor of. the Akaroa Mail.
Sic, —I niuet request you to give me further space in your columns to. finally reply to your correspondent " Voter." I think to the electors of the Akaroa and Wainui Road Board District my explanation of my position with reference to compensation shews that there is very little probability of my ever having any claim Against the Board. Had I thought that there was any possibility of this occurring, I should not have sought to represent our electors. I cannot now help thinking that *' Voter " is more interested in the subject than he wishes to appear to be. I need not, however, Sir, go over the ground of my explanation again, but I would remark that whoever is elected to £11 the vacant seat, it is quite within the range of probability that a compensation claim may crop up, affecting the interest of that member and also the public purse to a far greater extent than it will in the case of Yours, &c, C. M'DONALD. Akaroa, July 30.
