I “I am enclosing a sum of money I went you to give to the owner of a car whose tyres I punctured os Saturday night,” said a letter received by the editor of a Waikato paper to-day. “I had a row with my mate at a dance and was a bit drunk. My mate treated me dirty so I looked for revenge and thought I would make him walk home. However, on seeing my mate to-day, I found I had damaged the wrong man’s car, thanks to beer ; and girls. For this I am sorry and give my hist fl as something towards the damage. I would go personally if 1 knew who owned the car. “To-night I leave for ‘no man’s land,’ away from beer and girls. 1 write this letter to you because some innocent person might be blamed, and this would be terrible. Beer, youth and girls--no more for me. and goodbye Hamilton. Give the £1 to the { owner of the car.” This was a sequel to two letters in the correspondence columns this week complaining about interference with parked cars in Hamilton.
