PLUNKET SOCIETY.
VOTING QUESTION DISPUTE.
MISS PATTRICK'S POSITIOX,
(By Telegraph.—Press Association.) WELLINGTON, this day. Replying to Mrs. MaeGeonre's letter to the presidents of the Plnnket Society branches (published on the women's page in this issue), Mrs. Brown, the president of the Wellington branch, says she does not dispute that the motion was carried unanimously, in that there was no opposition to it, but states emphatically that she did not vote at all.
Long before the matter was announced to the public, and a fortnight before Miss Pattrick was given an ultimatum, she saye, she wrote to Mrs. Mac George as follows: "I have felt very confused ever since the council meeting, and I feel it is due to you and tlte central executive in Dunedin to tell you all my viewpoint. Perhaps you would notice that I did not actually vote on the question."
Mrs. Brown said that she was going to make a full explanation of not voting at the conference ill February, which seemed to her to be the right and proper place to discuss the pros and cons of the matter.
