AN EXPLANATION,
TO THE editor. ■; i. a . Sib,— ln your issue" of S*ttui3»y last, I notice a paragraph, which I have no doubt .has reference' to myself j and" whioh 'T believe has been reported with an evil dis■pbsed and' malicious intention. It is said that 1 received a oheque with a signature df 'a well-known lUto, but that afterwards hearing "ugly rumours of the solvency of the signature, I^dismgehuously aent'itto a new. beginner m hußineas for change, which was accommodatingly' ' furnished." The facts of the case are these ; the "new beginner " m business asked mjHSb oblige hinx with notes* for £2 m silver. I had not any small notes at the time, but .said I could give him a cheque^ which be nccepted,"thei* being up to this time tid "ugly rumours about;the solvency "of the eignatUre. The owner did riot come immediately, as your informant has it, but tfoV next •rening, (when there were'ugly rrumouA)";to!*j!k^in.f. to refund the amount; . So .that, Mr. Editor, the difference between your'infoiinant and an ; evil-disposed and malicious person is ''Sha(^r-vpry^'— fours' :&j^, f- '^ - L f- >:'.!■'!": ,'."^-|^M^Mopßl.
