iO nib KDirOH. Snt,— Ys "Poor Contiactor" seems to be cuiis.i(lci.tl»lydi''tiirbed inhis mind regarding the Cambridge bridge contract specifications, I enclose you the envelope in which the specifications were ponted, in order that he nuy compare the post mark on the same, with the date of the first appearance of the adteitiscment. That the specification was delayed m reaching Hewitt's Hotel was puielv accidental, and nut aa " Poor Contiactoi 'insinuates, detained with au object. I had occasion to wiitoto Mr (Jrice, and t>nclo-.ed tlie specification m tlio .sanu- envelope. Unfoitunately he happened to be fioin home at the tune, a circumstance I was not aware of, and henco the tumble. Independent of this, specifications for the work were on view at the Council Chambers, Ohaupo, and I was in no way bound to make a duplicate, but this I did with the bent intentions for the convenience of contractors ; that it failed in reaching its destination, I regret, quite as much an " Poor Contractor. —I •tin, <te, AI,KK.
