To the Editor of the 'Evexin-g Mail.' Sir — Mr Scott says there were some remarks made at the inquest held on my late wife. He is quite correct. He also reminds you of his past hospitality, for which I return him many thanks, but, alas, I wish n had been for food. The cut on my wife's eye was caused as was stated by me. I would recommend Mr Scott and likewise many others to allow no drinking at all in their houses, and thus set an example themselves. You stated in your issue of Thursday last that my youngest child's age was 13 years, but you were misinformed. I have five children, ranging from five to 19. I am, &c , Joseph W. Wilkixs Nelson, December 23.
