THE CAB CASES.
To the Editor of the Globe
Sir, —I observe that Councillor Ick at the meeting of the City Council held on Monday evening stigmatized the writer of the letter which appeared in your issue of Monday as a person who was not " an honest man," and also said that the letter was a complete " tissue of falsehoods." 1 beg to state that Mr Ick made this statement regardless of the truth, and that every word which appeared in that letter was not only only perfectly in accordance with the truth, but that if he wishes my statements verified, he has only to apply to his Worship the Mayor, and to those members of the cabmen who hindly took upon themselves to wait upon his Worship and the city solicitor on the subject of the cab question, and obtain their opinion as to what course would be best to adopt. Mr Ick should pause before he endeavors to make the public believe that any person has been guilty of a perversion of the truth, and I hope that he will take the necessary steps to show that he has not been obstinate, but that he intends to fall in with the views of his Worship the Mayor, which I think are sufficiently reasonable, and just both to the Council and the cabmen.
Yours, &c, A TOMMY DOD.
