DEAR Sift, -I believe 1 speak the s li''inaent of a large class of y..ur read- ers when 1 say that thew interesting letters have proved a source of great entertainment to us all, and that persuu- ally we feel under au obligattuu to the author, and shall regret very touch when they are brought to • clow. Fortunate ly the writer not only plraaeaaea the will- ingness to give, but he also bas the gift to describe in • most vigorous and graphic wanner the stirring events on which he was au prominent • figure; therefore instead of cryiui; Balt, we should like him to coutiuue hu interest- ing narrative until it assumes the Journ- al.. n* of a book, which he can finally leave behind him as a fitting wumulnent to lis pluck and ability as au old llurou pioneer. As the old settlers of flew town and the neighborhood oil 113 peemig away, the opportu.ri&ties for obtsu.tag i.for:u.tiuu regardl.g the county heif • century ago, will soca tiec..we rip -woody dilti.•ult, if not impossible, in view ..f •Inch w..ull it not be desirable to encourage as tar as You can, c.rrwp,nduucr of this macre, otherwise it may be tau late to obtain thee., precious bits of local nutury, which the future compiler would ounaider of such great value. The frequent and kindly •llu.ions to Little Ben are a just tribute to the mem- ory of a most worthy and conactentiow moan. It was my good fortune, over thirty jean ago, to be favored with his acq•laintancu, and wrl du I bring to rind the high esteem in which he was held as a citizen, while in matters of bu.inem he was looked upon as the very pink of honor. If I remember correctly, he roiled his days in • house opposite the o ffice of the Big Mill, and it is fresh in my memory today, the universal sorrow ex- p.essed by the mouraers, as in company with so many of them I had the honor of following him to his last resting place. When I read of the dangers and pri rations your worthy correspondent and his comrades underwent at that time, I am forced to the conclusion that the affair at Sarnia In '66, was after all but a little holiday jaunt, where the pleasing recollection of the good times we enjoy - / ed will tar outlive tho thought of any possible inc:nreoieoce we may have endured. Incidentally I might remark, what a pity that old historical dug -oat was not takers care cf, as it would have formed a most interesting commencement fear a local museum. In conclusion, allow me to express the opinion that while the 'gnat city dailies will continue to furnish the important tutelligeoce from the world at large, that we look more than ever to oar local sheet for what le going on immediately around as, and the paper that can •apply the largest amount of reliable home news is sure t to meet with a generous support. *J.
