(To the Editor of the Times).
Sir,—Dues it not seem strange that the Hon. James (Jarroll should have taken his departure from Gisborne withonL having addressed the electors in the principal centre '! Is it fair treatment, to a constituency that has otond !*y him through thick and tllin, and who on the occasion ot the last election gave him such a tremendous majority over his opponent- There were a number of questions that 1 and others wished to get an expression of opinion on from Mr Carroll, but his sudden (light has rendered this impossible. The reason for his sudden departure is attributed to ministerial business of importance that otlier ministers could not find time to attend to, but when we hear of Messrs Weddon and Ward travelling the country, and canvassing in the interests of other candidates, the excuse given by Mr Carroll does not hold good. I am afraid that if Mr Carroll cannot hud the time to give an account of his stewardship, many of the electors will not deem it worth their while to leave their work on Tuesday next to vote for him,—l am, etc,, SURpRIsEDi
