THAT CHEQUE.

Str,—Your correspondent Elector in yesterday's issue states that a cheque of $34 wes sent from Souris to Tignish to corrupt the electorate in favor of Meddie Gallant.

On reading Elector’s letver it struck me a> possible that he was mistaken, and that the cheque for $34 which he alleges was sent by the Grit boodle-holder at Souris was in reality a cheque cent by me for $34.87 to James Gillie, of Tignish, for rent of a house he owns in Souris and of which Tam ager t. The cheque was dated July 25th Unless ‘Elector proves that the cheque lL ?
