The time seems therefore to have arrived for remedying the injury that party has done, and for restoring the government, of the province to an efficient condition. If my services can be of use in bringing about that consummation I shall willingly lend my humble aid, and shall consider it an honour to resume my seat in the Provincial Council as one of your representatives, associated with ’the three other Gentlemen you name, with whom I am confident I shall be able to work harmoniously for the good of our districts and the province at large.
