CORRESPONDENCE,

j fey ot si Patri: f. SIR, ihe old adage that *‘ the bully usually a coward,” 1s weil illustrated in

Having re fused to allow me to delenad myself in the columns

yo ir precious person,

f the paper you control, against your

malicious attacks, you return to the charge |

and bellow forth your slime like a bull of

Bashan. Yourcraven heart would not beat fra ‘| mv reniie had ni.re fale) uul tree if my repites had @ pice, (aitnuough pru tei in the smallest type, and shoved away in the most obsenre corner of the daub which you calla newspaper.) You want to fight from your own dunghill; and you are welcome to the delectable spot, You have made tts atmosphere to suit you

admirably. Mr. Maleolm McLeod’s letter seems to show how little beth you and your paper are thought of in this community He was attorney for O’Farrel in the late ease. You said that a stolen letter was produced in Court by ‘‘O’Farrel’s attorney and demanded w hy I did not prosec

the man in whose possession the letter was found, and who had the audacity to use it as evidence in a Court of Justice. This fonl charge against one of the foremost members of our bar had appeared four days in your paper, and yet Mr. McLeod did not see it until I incidentally referred to it in Tue Examiner. Itis not probable that Mr. McLeod's numerous friends, no more than himself, ere readers of your contem)t- | ible paper, or they would have called his attention to it. Or possibly they did not think anything you could say calculated to | injure any responsible man. I[ am sorry | that my incidental reference to your foul) charge against Mr. McLeod has had the} effect of giving a respectable circulation to, a personal detraction.

Mr. MeLeod’s letter affords additional , evidence of how rotten are all your declar- | ations. In the Patriot of the 17th, in speaking of Mr. Strong's letter to McDon- ald, you said that I had ‘‘ the best reason | to believe that it was stolen or intercepted | out of the Pest Office.” Mr. McLeod gives O’Farrel’s version of how he received that} letter, which version is corroborated by | Mr. Strong, who has now returned to the office. Mr. Strong says that he delivered | that letter te John O Farrell in a sealed | envelope, who volunteered to carry it to | McDonald, at a time when it was thought | that the dispute would be amicably settled. | The forwarding of this letter in this way | by Mr. Strong was a straightforward act. | Bat, in your article of yesterday you say | that it would not surprise you to find that | the letter was given O’Farrel ‘ by one of | the official in the Land Office,” aud you} add: ‘‘A little patient urging when one has | untruthful, tricky people to deal with | often resulta in making strange discover- | ies.” When you wrote this you knew that | the letter was delivered to O’Farrel by Mr. | Strong. You may, however, spare your-| self the trouble of accusing him or any | officiais of the Land Office of “* tricks” or | “‘ ontruthfulness.” The name of Strong | is synonymous in this Island with honesty | and truth. Inthe depth of your moral} obliquity, I suppose you think if Jobn | O’ Farrel had the letter given him to carry | to McDonald, he was quite right in open- | ing it and using it for his own purposes.

Mr. McLeod may well say he was surprised when he heard McDonald! positively swear that there was! no condition annexed to his purchase. Were he a reader of the Patrivt, he would, | probably, be equally surprised to find that you have again and again, and with great | vehemence, made the same statement which | your we!l chosen friend McDonald swore | to. But no amount of oaths or protesta- | tions by such people as you are, can blot} the condition from the books of the Land Office. It can be seen by any person who will take the trouble to call at this office, | as stated by Mr. McLeod, on the counter- | foil of the Land Sales Book.

When you say that I led you to believe | that the Gillis survey was never in the | office, you stated an impudent falsehood. | I told you it was not produced by O'Farrell | as it should have been when he commenced his purchase in 1879, but that it was pro- | duced subsequent to the date of both sales. | Mr. McLeod, if he thought it worth while, | could have disposed of this question, as} this survey was in his possession at the! Court, and was returned to me by him | immediately afterwards. |

For the third time you repeat your false- | hood that I blamed McDenald for not acting on the advice contained in Mr. Strong’: letter. Any person who wiil take the trouble to refer to my letter in the Examiner of the 16th inst., will find that you are simply repeating what you know to be utterly false.

I have now done with you. The public have witnessed fur years the malignity and persistency with which you have slan- | dered me. | now publicly and deliberately | spit upon your influence The meanness | of your charac’er and the still greater |

[ACDONALD

meavness of your abilities, stamp you as a,

person much more to be prized as an| enemy than a friend. You have disgraced every position of life which | vou have attempted to fill, I am) told that at one time you adopted | farming as a profession. The re- flection that the grass would grow while | you slept, no doubt influenced your choice. | A little experience, however, demonstrated | to your satisfaction that the same rain anc | sunshine which caused the grass to grow 1n | the fields of industrious men, served at the | same time to make the thistle and the briar | grow more juxuriantly in the garden of the | siuggard, You abandoned farming in dice) gust. You becams a schoo'master; and wt, a time when examinations were merely | nominal, you secured a third, or lowest, | cla:s license. But even the children des- pised you; and I have myself, when you were a teacher in this town, seen you pur-) sused on the public streets by crowds of boys who amused themselves by shouting} “ Rufos” in your ca..—a nickname by) which they familiarly knew you. Through. | out life, notwithstanding your invincible | lizim g3, there was one thing for which you could be indueed to leave the bed of the slugger}, and that waa to abuse and black. | guard the best men in the country. For this purpose you have bern bought and sold like neat in the shambles. But every man who has bought you,sma'l as your price has been, has confessed that he was cheated out of his money. I am yours, &c., D. Fereveon.
