THE SPEAKER.
To the Editor. Sir, —As my name has been mixed up in the squabble about the election of the -Speaker of the Otago Council, and as you say, parenthetically, in the progress of your remarks, that Mr Reynolds denies having turned me out of the Speaker’s Gallery, when I—contrary to my use and wont — went there at the urgent request of several members who sent for o e to watch over the petition of the unemployed, perhaps you will allow me, by way of courtesy and for the truth’s sake, to assert decisively that I was rudely and insultingly ejected by the constable iu charge, by order of Mr Speaker. I am, &c., J. G. S. Grant. Dunedin, May 26.
