IN DEFENCE.
Sib, —Will you permit me through your columns to correct a report which appears in this morning’s Timks, ami which, if uncontradicted, is calculated to injure tho character of my house. The report states that Andrew Duncan and Henry Earl-were fined 20s. each “for creating a disturbance at the Cricketer's Arms Hotel on the previous evening." The facts are simply these The two men in question had been drinking in another hotel in Tory-street, and ended in fighting. On being interfered with they adjourned further clown the street, and recommenced fighting between ray house and the Prince of Wales Hotel. One of the men shortly afteiwards attempted to take refuge in my house, but I refused, him admittance ; neither of the men had been in my house at all, during the day or evening in question. Trusting that you wiU kindly insert this correction—l am. See., J. A. Chaney.
