Fox, upbraiding warn H for putting my finger in the Maori Gully piH^ ■ H I think if E. B. F will test- his memory! - H little, he will find that when before tjßl H Superintendent some remarks' fell*, from ;■'■ 1 ; H certain party there about the impracticability I H of the road, he said that if the road could nom,.| H be made that way at an easy cost he was particular, as "it would only inconvenie^W»^§| H some old woman and a couple of shaSßr//')- ', I keepers by going any other way. " ■^^■''f that I am surprised that he should pour {Jk| lus indignation on one wha was doingflH.. /H best to open up a new district of country jMM :^M his fairy palace, nan»ely, King John's aH • , Italian Gullies. '^^| On reading your paper of the 20th instanV I find appended to a letter from E. B. Fox« <■'. report from aMr Aitken, in which he mew '^| tions the obstacles that exist oh the twA .^| lines he looked for ; the oi.e in a direct' lin^'—Hß would take all the money the Province could lißj| command, while money will .make the other,. I Wf\ But I think were Mr Aitken to'vhaye a look wlim up this valley it-would leave a different iia- 9/j/l pression on his mind. But as myinterest is- Wlm not the same as that of E. 8.-.
