ROXBURGH SCHOOL.
(To the Editor.)
Sib, — In my last communication I observed that the public at large were aware that a sewing mistress had not only been appointed but had commenced teaching. The Committee not having come to any descision is, I suppose, the reason why one of them stated "there were no funds to procure prizes with." As to the proper time, it is usually shortly after the examination takes place.
•'Vox" complains of a distorted version being given, but really when that august assemblage, the Roxburgh School Committee, for whom I suppose he speaks, keep all their deliberations so mysteriously secret, perhaps it is the only way of arriving at the truth. It is certainly a great pity that "Vox" should have any connection with any thing that he could by any possibility call '■ small beer," as he is evidently worthy of being translated to some higher sphere, more congenial to him, and where his voice might be heard to greater advantage. — I am, &c , Your Correspondent. Roxburgh, 20th March, 1874.
