Being but human, I was not able to carry to a successful issue all that was desired, or desirable. lam trwueforo the more anxious to return in order ttiat I may utilise the experience I have acquired in completing the work which I have made a beginning, and successfully carrying * out the wishes and desires of many of my constituents, which my previous inexperience, coupled with the abruptr termination . of the last Parliament have prevented me from doing, The time being short, and the season inclement, I may not be able to go evorywhere 1 that might be expected to speak, npori this occasion. If I am unable to visit any locality; I' trust my friends will not blanie me, or think I neglect them, but believe that my interest in their welfare is so great,, and my friendliness towards them is so strong,, that I cannot but think, that'tntey will reciprocate my feelings, and will to a man come forward aad place me at the top of the ppllj and I promise on my part that I will gladly maet them in any locality whenever they may request me to do so. ;r " H '"'' ■ "' ' e 7oi f. w.
