PROFESSOR ROBERTSON THE WATCAMAN,

AND

lo the Editor of the Watchman : Sir,— What narrow being or becoming in Spirit, if not in flesh. I confess I was becoming a little prond, perhaps vain, and may be conceited, “just a kennin’ mair than was gude for me,” over the all-to-generous appreciation which the people of Prince Edward Island have given to the work of the dairy service there. I was prticularly pleased for the sake of those who are associated with me | in this work, and who have given of them | selves and of their home and family com- } forts more than the public know to ad vance the welfare of the Province. Iam ndebted to people all over Canada for hospitalities, and in of these have I rejoiced more unresr edly than in

I have no hesitation in rely- zon the fairness of the Watchman to et me thank you through its columns for the part of the editorial atout me, which was meant “to bring me tomy senses.” | take the licking you intended Tor me on account of personal deficienzies, as being for my good, and I am too well nourished n spirit to let it create any Chinese re- sentment. , Tadmit that I am ambitious—ambit- 13 to render as large and lasting rvice to my fellows asl canon my one journey through life.

editorial might prevent that, I desire to and in no way

Atno time have I ever cherished sn unkindly towards the Irish; and your remarks thai I offered insults to them in public ad- dresses or in private speech are wholly | unwarranted and unjust.
