Most of the contributor were members
of the- Society of Friends, but with them
were associated Mr. Miller above men-
tioned, who took one share himself and
some for his friends and Earl Spencer, the
present Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, who

tions Mr. McKSllar joined Mr. King in
giving a receipt. He never touched a
dollar of the money, =awes only actuat-
ed, sa: he• has been throughout, by a de -
)to assist Mr. King's efforts.
.r, King received half the money,
and applied it to meeting the claims of
the undertaking it was obtained for, and
in which he had alreody sunk a large
amount of his own means. The balance
was forwarded, six months later, to Mr.
McKellar, by Mr King's direction, to be
applied in purchasinga caro of staves,
Mr. McKellar being at the time engaged
in a lumbering business. Theltrmhas long
since been dissolved, but Mr. McKellar
wasable to produce a very circumstan-

money had been applied and the result

the payments. Last year Mr. King, to
whose integrity Mra hie&eller paid azi'
high tribute vas able to remit $5.000,
or half the original amount, to England ;
and Mr McKellar declared that he nev-
erhad and never would -shirk the duty of
bearing the loss himself if Mr. King
werenot able- to make the whole sum
good`
To show, however, the views held by.
the butt of the contributors, Mr. Mc-
Kellar read letters from. Rev. W E.
Forster,. M P,, Mr. Gurney Barclay, and
other's, who protested that they had
never looked for any return, but, from
the first, regarded their subscriptions as
a donation to a. purpose eseellent in it-
self but very unlikely to prove a success
financially.
It will he seen by this narrative, there-
fore, that three different frauds are re-
ferred to :
First -The fund of -the Elgin Associa-
tion. •
Secondly -The fn'nd of the Buxton
Mission, administered under the control
of the Canada Presbyterian Ghurche and
to the faithful application of which Rev-
Mr.
ev.Mr. Scott testifies, as well as to the fact
that Mr. McKellar did not and could nut
touch it -
Lastly -The fund collected for the
saw mill, and ;which,. as we have also
seen, Mr. Melt ellar had nothing to do
with in his personal capacity, although
his sense of honor has led him to accept
the responsibility of seeing it is paid to
all those of the original - subscribers who
are willing to receive payment.
One incident referred to by Mr.. Me -
Kellar we have yet to mention, It is
already known that the late Mr. Sand -
field Macdonald had in his plsaession all
the documents relating to these matters,
and had beendirectly applied to by
those who desired to make Mr.. McKel-
lar responsible for what they chose to
represent as grave irregulal•ities.,or worse:
yet Mr.. McKellar stated. that he had, in
1871, a direct overture from Mr. Mac-
donald to induce him to join the Minis-
