a public meeting was held at the Briftsh
Exchange lIotel, oa Wednesday the 15th
December, 1952. The meeting was eery
numerously atieuded, and the greatest
enthusiasm and unity of heeling was mani-
fested throughout.
'I'be Mayor took the Chair, and Dixie
Watson, Esq., was appointed 1 ecr.Ory by
the meeting. • -
11'he Mayor then read the regoiaitioi and
the names affixed thereto; he also explained

doing. The regret felt is tbe stronger on
account of Dir. Jones' having ever proved
himself the true and considerate friend of
the settlers of these Counties, whilst sere-
ouously advocating the best interests of his
employers; and, this meeting now public-
ly declares, that the treatment received by
Mr. Jones at the 'sands of tbe Company,
is not only unjust Rod oppressive, but.un-
