THE “LOTTERY SWINDLE.”
To the Editor of the Marlborough Express Sir, —When I ventured to publicly expose the unfairness of tke notorious “Gingerbread Swindle,” 1 was fully prepared to be assailed in return with an unlimited amount of Billingsgate. I was not, therefore, surprised at the effusion in your last signed “ Brown and Sutherland.” li is simply characteristic of the mind, and may be looked for from one who would cheat a child of its pence. I shall not further pursue the thankless subject, but end the matter by consigning the unfortunate Man of “Ginger bread ” to the tender mercies of the Boys, who seem to know the treatment the trickster deserves.—l am, &c., 11. Dodsox. Bleuhoim, Jan. 0, 1863.
