MR TANKARD'S CASE.
Sin,—l was very pleased to see your reference to Mr Tankard's,accident. Ho was laid up a long while, and was put to great expense, ana only had a very small income during that time, as. you pointed out, and I feel quite sure that he must have experienced a great', financial strain. Now, sir, Mr Tankard has' been bandmaster for many, .years, and has brought the band to great perfection, arid this lias resulted in uiuch.pleasure'to the public by the excellent .performances given out of doors by tlie band.>'N°w, I would suggest that it wonM*be '.a graceful act, and a fitting testimony to Mr. Tankard s loss by illness, an'djtiis exertions as bandmaster,, if an entertainment of some kind,were got up for his. benefit," and I feel certain that it wotM secure.--liberal patronage from all classes; * I.; throw but the su'gges-' tion in hopes' that more powerful advocacy than mine may push the .matter.forward. —lam, &c., -,-''••' '.' ■ " '..; ■' . •
