A DENIAL.
|To the Editor of the Daily Telegeaph.] Sib,—My attention having been called to a paragraph in one of your Wairoa correspondent's letters, in which reference is made to a tender (or tenders) being opened, and the contents made known, I wish to submit that your correspondent should particularise his charge and state where he got his information from. I wust decidedly assert that tenders have never been opened except at the duly appointed times. If people send tenders to the office, and not through the medium of the tender-box, and if such tenders have nothing endorsed outside whereby they could be distinguished from ordinary correspondence, it is quite possible that they may have been opened for the purpose of classifying the correspondence, but in no case have the contents been made known,—l am, &c.
H. J. WIXLTAMS, County Clerk, "Wairoa, February 7, 1881.
