As tb my abilities to serve in so important a capacity, I submit -rather to your judgment than my own diffident feelings on such a subject, "if you should think fit to elect me, you may depend upon my best endeavours in advancing the general prosperity of the Province.

Alberton, ilib July, 1805 TO THE ELECTORS OF THE PENSIONER SETTLEMENTS. r\ ENTLEMEN,—Having had the honor O of being named at a meeting held at Onehunga, on Monday, the 11 til inst., as a fit and proper person to be nominated for the Provincial Council, I lake the liberty, through the medium of the public Press, of addressing those electors, who, being absent fmor that meeting, had not the opportunity of hearing my answer to the proposal. Previously to the mention of my name, four gentlemen had been proposed, who appeared to have been separately selected by the different Settlements, and whose election appeared to meet with general approbation. If I may be permitted to advise you, I would say, elect those gentlemen and avoid, by an unanimous concurrence, the diiadvantages unavoidably attached to attending a difference of opinion; and promote your own interests, by returning more efficient men than myself to perform the important duties which must devolve upon that body. I beg, however, to place myself entirely in your hands, and should a majority of you demand my services, it shall be my constant endeavour to compensate for my deficiencies by an unremitting zeal in your cause, and unwearied attention to the promotion of your interests. I have the honor to remain, Gentlemen, Your obedient servant, Henry Smythies. Oaehunga, 12th July.
