THE LATE “COUNTY” MEETING.
To the Editor of the Marlborough Express. Sir, —I find from looking down a late issue of your paper, that a “Picton Resident” has been writing against Mr. Charles Price, in which he handles him, in my opinion, very cruelly. I was in Mr. Price’s company while he was reading the letter I allude to ; I noticed a sudden paleness spread over him, but when he came to that sentence, “ Pearl-of-great Price,” his whole frame shivered and shook “like a pyramid of jelly.” Being a Scotchman myself, I could not help exclaiming in the words of Burns ‘ ‘My elder brother in misfortune, with tears I pity thy unhappy fate.”—l am, yours, &c., Picton, July 2nd, 1868. Sympathy.
