A WHANGAREI LOAN
Sir, —I have read .Mr. J. G. Barclay'i letter in your issue of June 2."} on the above subject and note, without surprise, that he makes no attempt to claim the cheque for £IOO which I offered to hand to him for the benefit of the Tikipunga. Orphanage at Whg. ngarei if he could substantiate a statement he made through your paper on .June 16 last: also, that he now'admins that that .statement was not founded on fact. ■ . .
As. however, I had made it abundantly dear that my hoard had no quarrel with the Government regarding the rate of interest, the excuse .Mr. Barclay now offers for his misstatement is. somewhat weak. and li is persistent reference to the rate of interest gives the impression that lie wished to cloud the real issue. -J. A. S. Mackay, Ciiairman, Whangarei Hospital Board.
