(To the Editor of the Grey River Argus.) '■ •SiX— Some few days since I met Mr Whall in the street, when he told me some of the arguments he hail used the previous evening at the meeting of the Improvement Committee against having a municipality, and why he thought Mr Aeurick" was actuated by interested motives in wishing, to include within tlie^Uoundaries the upper part of the Maori to\yiiship, aud leaving oiijt that part of the Government township which lies oh the south side of the Arney. street bridge. I explained to him that that portion was already within the surveyed? township'.' "Mr Coates, who was standing near, remarked that he had known ". that for " some time, for lie had applied for ;some land there and .was told he could not get it as it was within the surveyed township. Mr Whall then remarked., that he had made a mistake in the remarks he had made the previous evening, for which he was very sorry, and requested me, if I. saw Mr Kenrick, to tell him that he wished, to see: him on the subject. ...viStou may judge then of my surprise wKeiiX heard Mr Whall, last evening, in his dastardly attack) on Mr Keinick, tpake use of . the self same arguments which : he had acknowledged to me he was- sorry, for shaving used on a previous occasion. 1■ < v : v:'- ; : lam, &c, Robkut B, Ut -March, 1367,
