TO THE ELECTORS OF LYTTELTON. f^\ ENTLEMEN,—When, scarcely twelve \JT months ago, you plnced me in the honorable position of one of your Representatives, I hoped that I should retain that position until I could do something to shew my desire to advance your interests in a material degree, and prove mcontestably the wisdom of your choice. That hope has been dissipated by the dissolution of the Council; and I must now trust that you have still sufficient confidence in me to return me at the forthcoming election. Should I be so happy as to obtain your suffrages, I promise to use my best powers in your service. I am, Your obliged servant, ALBERT T. BRADWELL. April 17,1862. 1627 TO THE ELECTORS OF THE TOWN OP LYTTELTON. /~i ENTLEMEN, —Having for several years \JT had the honor of being- one of your Representatives in the Provincial Council, I am again solicitous to obtain one of the seats in the next Council, now at your disposal. Among the various subjects that will engage the attention of the New. Legislature, I consider none so important as the vexed question of Education, and anticipating that a sound and liberal system of instruction will be introduced next session, I will if returned, cheerfully support the same. The public works of this Province, more particularly in the outlying districts, I am anxious to see meet the same careful consideration and attention they did last session; and if you return me as one of your members you may rest assured that the interests of Lyttelton and the harbor will be my constant study and pleasing duty to promote. I am, Gentlemen, Your obedient servant, 1591 ROWLAND DAVIS. TO THE ELECTORS OF THE TOWN OF LYTTELTON. /"I ENTLEMEN, —The writs haying-arrived VT for a new election of members for the Provincial Council, I beg to offer myself as a candidate for one of the seats at your disposal. During the coming session of the Council several subjects of importance are likely to be brought forward which I will briefly notice. The great difference of interests between the two islands, has from the fivst made the subject of a separate government only a question of time, and ■with the rapid increase of population in the Middle Island, this should be taken in hand at once, as any longer delay will only render more difficult and complicated the arrangments necessary when separation takes place. Although the revenue is now in a flourishing state, circumstances may suddenly occur to affect it for a time, and the Council cannot be too careful in keeping the expenditure well within our means. The Vote for Education appears to have hitherto been distributed undermerely temporary regulations which should now be definitely settled, having seen the two systems working side by side, in Australia, for many reasons I think the National best suited to our wants. Should you elect me, you may rely on my best exertions to promote the interests of Lyttelton and the province generally. I am, Gentlemen, Your obedient servant, 1471 GEORGE BUCKLEY. TO THE ELECTORS OF THE TOWN OF LYTTELTON. /^1 ENTLEMEN,—Having, as I trust, satvT isfactorily represented you in the last Provincial Council, I again place my services at your disposal. Should you at the forthcoming election honor me with your confidence, you may rely upon my continuing to study your interest •and that of the province generally. I am, gentlemen, Your faithful servant, 1556 J. T. PEACOCK. TO THE ELECTORS OF THE WAITAKI DISTRICT. r\ ENTLEMEN,—I have been requested by vJT many of your number to represent your district in the Provincial Council, I therefore beg to offer you my services and to solicit your votes at the coming election. One of the oldest settlers in the district, I am thoroughly acquainted with its wants and interests. Whilst declining to pledge myself to any particular party or measure, if you do me the honor of electing me, it shall be my constant endeavour to promote your welfare and that of the province at large. I am, Gentlemen, Yours faithfully, 1540 LESLIE C. THOMSON. TO THE ELECTORS OF MOUNT COOK DISTRICT. GENTLEMEN,— At the request of some of your electors, I am induced to offer myself as a candidate to represent you in the next Provincial Council. Living in Christchurch, I shall be always at hand to watch your interests, and if returned will do my best to serve you. I am, gentlemen, yours, &c, C. NEWTON. Christchurcb, April 1,1862. 1360 TO THE ELECTORS OF THE TOWN OF TIMARU. f^ ENTLEMEN,—As you will in a lew XJC days be called upon to elect a member to represent your interests in the Provincial Council, I beg to place my services at.your disposal.
