IN FURTHER EXPLANATION.
(to the editor of the standard.) Sir. — Allow me through the medium of your paper, a reply to •' An Observer's " letter, which appeared m your issue of tha 19 th mat. With regard to the refreshments, and lighting the room for dancing ; there is a saying that a guilty conscience needs no accusing, and I think it very applicable m this instance. As to the persons trying to raise a disturbance, I would ask "An Observer" when_ the iady who took the most active part m getting up the children's meeting arrived at the school on the morning m question, who was it that unwarraatablv charged her with untruthful accusations, and persisted m doing bo until five o'clock m the evening, when I deemed it advis. able to take my family home? Also, who was it that asked my assistance m closing the room against the dancing, m the absence of the Chairman of Com- [ mittee, and then reported that I was going to close the school ? With this I hope " An Observer," will be satisfied for the sake of all concerned. — I am &c, George Mejibery. Rangitikei Lino, January 20.
