[TO TIM EDITOR OF TRH "SPECTATOR."] SIR,—We regret very much
the necessity of asking you to insert another letter, but it is impossible for us to allow the statements of Mr. Nightingale (which have appeared in your issue of the 19th inst.) to pass uncontradicted. To deal with Mr. Nightingale's statement that he had seen a testimonial given to this man. The testimonial was not given to the man himself, but to a third party, and was given after his repre- sentations that he had reformed his ways,—a position which was confirmed by his conduct during his last employment with us, but has since proved not to be well founded. Mr. Nightingale omits to say that in this reference it was explicitly stated that the cause of leaving was "that his work was finished." As regards the words quoted by Mr. Nightingale, the manager referred to who gave the man notice absolutely denies having used the words imputed to him.—We are, Sir, &c., A. BOARS, ROBERTS, & CO., LTD.
(A. ROANS, Director).
