JOHNSTON V. CLARK
(To the Editor.) Sib,— -In the report of tbe ease Johnston I>. Clark in your last issue, I wish to correct one very gross mistake. I am reported as having admitted that Mrs. Clark "insisted on paying the money as interest, not as rent." I emphatically assert I did no such thing j
nor did I say Mrs. Clark ever made any objection to pay the money as rent. What I did say was that" Mr. Clark himself on one occasion, and only one, said to Mrs. Clark " Do not pay the money as rent, but as interest;" and that Johnston answered " The agreement is to pay the money as rent; you have paid it as rent before, and I will only receive it as rent now.'' Whatever your reporter may have wished I had Baid, I think be should only have reported what I did say, or not reported at all. — I am, &c, M. O'Gobman.
