A MISCONSRTUOTION.
JjO the Editor of th Wairarapa Daily Sir—Permit me through your columns to correct a misconstruction regarding my remarks at the meeting on Saturday night. It appears that they were construed into a personal attack on Mr Beetham. Nothing, I assure you, was further from my thoughts. As an honorable gentleman, and oue who has ever had the good of the district at heart and devoted his time and energies to further it, Mr Beetham has no sincerer admirer than myself; and I should indeed be ungrateful were I to attempt to cast the slightest slur on one from whom I have received innumerable kindnesses. With regard to the political opinions expressed by me, they are my firm convictions, and I maintain my right to perfect freedom of speech at a public meeting, and lam certain that Mr Beetham would be the last to question such right.— lam, Ac, A. D. Com, C.E.
