NORTH-EAST VALLEY LARRIKINISM.
TO THE EDITOR. —ln fairness to our local constable, you might publish these few lines. Anyone reading the letters that have appeared in print lately would form an idea that the Valley was a regular hot bed of larrikinism. I happened to be at the concert given by the band last Friday night, and there certainly was no need for the slightest police protection whatever. What the correspondent calls “larrikins” were a few school children having a game among themselves on the grass, and they caused no annoyance to the public or band. The borough is just as orderly as any other about Dunedin, and the policeman we have is quite capable of doing all that is required of him.—l am, etc., Sid Hisloi*. North-east Valley, March 15.
