BAVFIELD, June 30th 1890.-1 not•, iced in the Bayfield correspondence, in! your issue of the 26th inst., an article. reflecting very severely, on a family named Elliott residing here. As the; article in question is a falsehood from begian)ing to end. You will be doing an act of justice to the family in gties• tion by inserting this in your valuable' paper as the matter is before the court at present. I will make no further comment but to state that the girl has been always well treated by the Elliott family and they have evidence to prove that the punishments said by our cor- responclentto have been given are all imaginary, and if your correspoedent dare repeat his cowardly attack; on those people who have been known;and respected for over thirty years he will be made to answer for it. .Yours .
