The following note from him will explain his position :—“ I have read with surprise and annoyance a local in your issue of Friday, relating to myself; and as it is very misleading, and calculated to injure me professionally in Patea, I feel called upon to contradict it. Let me say that I am not aware of any alterations whatever about to take place in the charge, conduct, or management of my Patea business. It will continue to be entirely in my own charge, and conducted solely by myself as at present, and the same time and attention will I trust always be devoted to it.— Yours truly, Gervase D. Hamerton.’*
