Palmerston South Stock Inquiry.
TO THE UDirOR. t Si a,— The rep>rt,r« Urn inquiry U to hand, and while we have to accept it, we do not think tho lat er part, which seoins fci cast aspersions on Mr Duoctn, ihould be allowed to pas?. . The repo?b conveys the impression that Mr Dune m sent for Mr H*mi!t)n on his own accouni;. This is wrong. Mr Hamilton wa* brought up at our request, Mr Durlcan acting on behalf ot' the petitioners, from whom the expense was csllected. All that Mr Duucan~did was at the request oT the -petitioners, and we are very grateful to him foe his assistance and the trouble he ha« 'gone to to help v? in this matter. We onljr wish there were mova of hia Sort in the country 'to 'help • the farmers ia' their troubles: Jfwehtd a few.iv Parliament who live amongst;, the gobblers and understood their wants and. interest',. there would. be Ifss of this oppressive and harassing legislation carried againat them: %| ' Apologising f6r troubling you, — Lam, &c«, June Wl. R Jeffbris (for petitioners).
