"JASMINE FARM"
Sir,-Though I -deeply and sincerely fegret unwittingly giving pain to Mr. and Mrs. Newton, in the words of the Good Book-‘"Can I not do what I will with mine own?" While I deplore the word "derelict" (which I did not use), how is Mr, Newton to know that, when’ the NZBS representatives came down, ' they did not find we had let the place become a total ruin, the Newtons not having seen the property for five years? At no time did I say there was no garden, or make any comment on Mr. Newton, his wife’s activities, his nicelymannered children, or his animals. I realise that the Newtons have not heard the broadcasts themselves, or they would not have written so unkindly about one who has nothing but sympathy for a man so sick, together with grateful: thanks to a generous country and a warm-hearted people among whom, I have found a generous husband and a happy home.
