We regret that statements, which ,
we're not true, made by interested ,
parties to the Individual members of

should have caused the committee at ;
their last meeting, and ourselves in
reporting it, to do injustice to Messrs. :
Farris d Harkey, the lessees Of :
James Park. These gentlemen have +
shown that these statements were ,
malicious, and we are glad to bear !
testimony to the fact that they have :
acted thrGugEottthe whole affair with :
a llberality as remarkable as il is q
pr~aisewOrthy. q

Iulre any extended notice from US. /

ness entrusted to him has been I
promptly and properly attended. We t
,heerfully recommend Judge Hill to t
public, well knowing his ability II
disposition to please all who may p
avor him with their business. Il
