This is to be the last contribution from youi , humble (though at times capricious) servant. Before saying good-bye, it is only an act of courtesy to offer my humblest apology to the long suffering linotypist of Tlio Chronicle. Ho has for two years patiently laboured to interpret my hieroglyphics—with marvellous success. To your readers I also have to apologise, and to thank them for their patient endurance of the many inflictions T have from time to time placed on them, for which I hope they will forgive mo. Whether they do or not, at all times hereafter the good people of the Horowhenna County will always find a warm place in my "bosom.
