[TO Tfl & T.DL LOtl INANGAHUA TIME*.] I Sm, — The Defiance of jonr eontemi porary is most amusing. Ho thought be had cornered you on a " good thing," but you wolloped him unmercifully. H : s , last faint kick is not a very di£D'fied one. i Forced to retreat l'rom his presumed ; stroDg-bold, ho now shelters himself with the garb of an anonimous correspondent, i and talks of having seen a choquo " that i was gi7en for the purchase of some of them at a higher price than you hare yet • mentioned." This is meant for '• cheque " i for you and no mistake, but I rather think it will prove " stale-mate." I too have Been some big cheques float 'ng aboat for shares is my time— cheques 1 with writing on both sides of them. I saw some of them in Inangahua in the early days. Lord love you, there is more in Heaven and Reefton then is dreamt of iv yoar philosophy .—I am, sir, &c, OUT-AND-OtTrsiDEß. Eeefton, June 23rd, 1877.
