OFFICIAL INSOLENCE.
To the Editor of the Daily Times,
Sir— Several friends of mine have intimated to ma that that part of your report,in the Times of to-day, which refers to the dishonored cheque might, by a superficial observer, be understood to mean my cheque; which is also mentioned. This, however, is not the fact. The expression made use of by Mr. Calcutt was, that he then held a dishonored cheque given to him by a member of the profession, " quite as respectable sis Mr. Cook was or ever would be," thus implying that I was in bankrupt circumstances Perhnp3 Mr. Calcutt will be able to explain himself more clearly to my professional adviser in reply to any communication he may make in reference to the public withdrawal of this defamatory language. I am, Sir, Your most obedient servant, George Cook.
Dunedin, June 1.9, ISO 2.
