THE CAMBRIDGE BAKERY.

Sir, —We have noticed in your issue of the 23rd current, a statement in your Cambridge letter, respecting the manner ia which., Mr James, Collins, the foimer Proprietor of what w called in that letter, the " Principal 'Baking Establishment in the township" conducted his business. We ©mphatlcally Jeclare that the charges therein" made are a tissue of falsehoods. We were all Customers of Mr Collins ■ and decidedly -state thaa we never received the slightest -incivility ' from the boy, who was employed'to carry round the bread. Nor did v?e«ver hear of hiß abusing a"" child or boy with frightful language ;" on the contrary *w« avere that we have always been treated by Rlr Collins and hi* emploje with the civility. We hire not "hailed the change with gi*eat satisfaction." — We are. &j., James Hilly, fftrcsk.

With regard to the 'letter in the " Walk&to Times " of October 23rd, sthat Mr Collm'ft boj was uncivil, and that therefore the change of the bakery to Mr Jiilmshe is bailed with great satisfaction, <1 beg, most decidedly to state tliat this i 3 untrue as far «s our experience has been able to lea/d us to form »just conolusiou, W^ have found the boy extremely oourteous indeed, and have had cause to praise, not to blame — I am, <fee, 0- J Neill, <Tfae Mao»e, Cambridge, 2«3rd October, 1675. [We have requested our * Cambridge correspondent— as much for his sake as our own — to give a f uiLeo&planation. of this matter. — Ed W I]
