Gentlemen, — I accept, with thanks, the requisition which has this day been presented to me, and trust that my past political career, known to you for a period of thirteen years, may be accepted as a sufficient pledge for my future exertions. I have the honour to be, Gentlemen, Your obedient servant, Wm. Brown. To Joseph Newman, Esq., and the other Gentlemen signing the Requisition.

To the Electors of the City of Auckland, f^ ENTLEMEN, — At the request of a number V7T of my fellow townsmen I am now before you as a Candidate for a seat in the House of Representatives as one of the members for your City. And for that seat it appears I shall have to con tend with a formidable opponent. Nevertheless, a duty has devolved on me, and 1 shall not shrink from the contest. The present i-, undoubtedly a very critiYal juncture in the affairs of New Zealand. With the members in this General Assembly restis&ues of greater importance than are likely to result from the labours of any of their successors for many years to come. £ confess to an anxious solicitude that the interest of Aucklaud may not be lost sight of, or placed in a position of inferiority, in the comprehensive plans which are announced or forthcoming : and without claiming for myself any special ability to maintain those interests, I do trust that I may, without egotism or offensive comparison, respectfully solicit your support on the grounds of my lengthened and intimate acquaintance with the affairs and requirements of this district, and I may be permitted to add, my deep and permanent interest in the welfare of Auckland. Should Ibe elected by your suffrages, my best endeavours shall not be wanting to show practically how highly I estimate the honour which you shall have conferred upon me, — an honour which I shall consider as consisting mainly in its placing me in a position in which I may humbly but more effectually serve my adopted country, my adopted town, and yourselves. I have the honour to be, Gentlemen, Your most obedient humble servant J. Williamson.
