To THE ELECTORS OF RODNEY-STREET WARD.
GENTLEMEN,
THE period has nearly expired for which you did
me the honour to elect me one of your Municipal Repre-
sentatives. During the time in which I have had a seat in
Council, many subjects of great local importance have pre-
sented themselves, bearing strongly on the social condition of
the inhabitants. Whether these subjects have been popular or
otherwise, I have never shrunk from their discussion, nor have
I hesitated to adduce the reasons which have influenced me in
recording my Votes.

While Ti clieeriuify acknowledge the responsibility of repre-
sentatives, I should yet be wanting in respect both to you and
to myself, if I did not exercise the best judgment I possess, and
act according to the dictates of my conscience, on those varied
and difficult subjects which continually engage the attention of
the Council. If, in the exercise of such judgment, I have the
misfortune to differ from many of my Constituents, the remedy
is in your hands ; and as I emerged from private life at your
request, I shall again return to it with pleasure, and shall very
willingly acquiesce in your decision, if you think fit to sub-
stitute another Gentleman, whose general views are more in
accordance with your own.

Identified as I am with the welfare of our Town, I have been
anxious to remove from it those evils which have been so
loudly complained of ; and in providing for the wants of our
increasing Commerce—in cai rying •ut local improvements—.
in endeavouring to procure for all classes, but particularly for
the labouring thousands, a better supply of Water—and in at-
tending to those details of financial and general management
of the Corporate Estate, which do not prominently meet the
public eye, I have zealously endeavoured to legislate for the
general welfare, and have dpubtless failed in giving satiafaction
to all.

I
am always prepared to state my reasons for the course
which I have adopted; and as many communications have
been addressed to me—both privately and through the public
press—l deem it my duty to give to any of the Burgesses of
this Ward an opportunity of putting to me any questions which
they may think fit, and, at the same time, defending myself
against those attacks to which I have recently been subjected.
To you only, Gentlemen, am I specially responsible ; and I
therefore respectfully invite you to honour me by your attend-
ance at the MUSIC HALL, Bold-street, on MONDAY EVEN-
ING, the 15th instant, at Seven o'clock, when I shall be happy
to reply to any observations that may be made. This course I
consider to be most respectful to you, and also a duty which I
owe to myself.

I have the honour to remain,
Gentlemen,
Your obedient and faithful Servant,
SAMUEL HOLMI
