Public Notices P O L O G yT The Proprietors of the Hawlc's Bay Herald havingbeen served with writs onbehalf of Major Mair and Mr. Searancke, claiming damages for an article headed “ Political Traitors,” reflecting upon them, published in the Heratd of the 14th June last, have, in the belief that the article that referred to contained statements libellous and [untrue, offered to make a full apology, and to pay £SO into Court in each case. Major Mair and Mr. Searancke, through Messrs. Duller and Lewis, their solicitors, have been pleased to accept this offer. The Proprietors of the Herald therefore desire to tender a sincere apology to Major Mair and Air. Searancke for publishing the article in question. It was written and published in the public interest, and in the belief that the statements therein contained were true, but fuller information has convinced them that in their desire to perform what they conceived to be a public duty they inflicted a serious and material injury upon the gentlemen named, and that the statements made in the article in question were absolutely untrue. They therefore not only apologise, but withdraw those statements and comments without reservation, and express their great regret that they should have given publicity to them. The name of Major Jackson, of the Waikato, was also coupled with those of Major Mair and Air. Searancke, and the Proprietors of the Herald wish this retractation and apology to be understood as applying to him also.. The Herald Proprietors also desire to thank Messrs. Duller and Lewis, and their own solicitor, Air. Salisbury, for their friendly offices in arranging an amicable settlement to 'the actions raised. October 10, 1879. CITY COUNCIL.
