They turned me out of the Road Board, they turned me out the Assaneaum, altho' I am a life member, they, would'nt have me on the Boating Club, altho. 1 had a boat, and last of hall they .have 'ousted me from the School Commiftee and no one would propose me for re-election. This, Gentelmen, shews plainly how hignorant .. they all 'are, they can't appreciatte me;^T£ey say I'mputup as an Ox, but it's no ox; they say it's to prevent a walk oyer,:i'll give tbem walk over I'll walk over my hoppbnent's edd.

It is a gross mistake to think that I am not the fittest and properest person for the Maerle chair — I have told every Committee I have yet been on that I was the only man fit for the Chair, but they would'nt helect me; and I abused them- all round for their want of discernment. . Gentelmen, if you do me the onor ofhelecting me I assureyou, Gentelmen, it- will reflect credit on your intelegence and shed a ray of glory on our new borough, for I feel myself to the " billet born" and vill rule with a spectre in my hand and a bailone on my edd. ■■'' ' Trusting, Gentelmen, you are not Oxing me, I leave myself in your ands. 16 TOM NOODY.
