the offense committed by me in ad-
ministering corporal punishment to
Francis Wood. son of Capt. and Mrs.
F. L. Wood, especially in view of the
fact that my act was committed in
the absence of the Doctor in the SER
vice of his country. thereby reflecting
upon the honor and loyalty of the
community. feel that the least l can
do to make amends for my foolish
and almost criminal display of tenn
per is to make this public apology to
Capt. and Mrs. Wood, to Mrs. T. w.
PARROT on whose premises the Of
Tense was committed, and to the pub
lie at large for the unmerited censure
that have brought upon them.
This l do humbly and in all SINGER
ity and l hope that the parents will
find it possible to forgive me and the
the public to pardon my act. Furth-
er that I may be given strength to
control my temper in the future.
