NEW CHUM IN REPLY.
(TO THE KDITOK OF THE PATEA MAIL.) Sin,—My first modest epistle appears lo have been read with critical interest by some of your subscribers, who have each, judging- from their letters, taken the hint, and made their answers no longer than was necessary to convey their ideas before the public. lam a bashful young man, and have not sufficient ambition to cause me to forward my name for public criticism —no, not even to gratify a venerable “ Old Chum.'’ I am pleased to learn, since my last note, that the advertisement for a doctor for this district, appeared in three of the papers named by me, but it did not appear in the only pnper published in the County. However, as it is a private society, and I am only a new member. I suppose 1 am in hot water about what I have already written, so I’ll say no more.—l am. Ac.. NEW CHUM. Hawora, January RI, HS77.
