To the ratepayers of the Township 1/:
I would like to clarify some details re- 4
garding this statement, As you know s.,r
the last meeting of the Council is held 1:
on Nov. 15th., after which time I have
one week in which to balance my books
and prepare the statement and allow g
the printer sufficient time for printing,
before Nomination, November 22. An-
other party, not on my instructions
picked op the printed statements and
delivered them to the nomination meet-
ing. I had not been given the oppor-
ttmity to check it and regret that a few
minor clerical errors were not correct-
ed,
The statement did not include all of
1045 taxes collected. For instance an
amount of $532.09 was collected by the
tax collector in the Spring of 1046, and
should have been transferred Ic) the
Township on May 1, It was finally
transferred! on September 16, but no
notice was sent to me of the transfer,
All other collected taxes are entered
in Cash BoOk,
In connection with the coming elec-
tion of Reeve. for the Township of East
Wawanosh, it has come to my atten-
tion that certain statements are being
made about my positiotton as Clerk
and Treasurer, and in particular, in-
sinuations are being made that my 1:
statement of Receipts and Disburse-. Rt.
meats which was presented at the
Nomination meeting is not correct and
that. my books are in disorder:

Yesterday we received the parcel Crown. So one by one the old land
you sent us and we are so thankful marks are disappearing,
about it that words can hardly convey
our feelings.
I have five little grandchildren and
2 sons with their wives. I divided the
parcel the best I could and. I wish
you were here to see the children, how
happy they were. I kept for myself
the trousers and the shoes.
'rhe conditions have worsened. Es-
pecially the food situation has become
desperate. Wheat is selling for 3000
drachmas per oka, ($2.82 a lb.), also
the shoes and clothing are very dear,
Beyond our reach.
For this reason we appeal to your
philanthropic feelings and ask you to
help us in anyway possible. We have
received no letter and we don't know
exactly who sent the parcel, but we
take it for granted that it was sent
by a daughter of my cousin, George.
Won't you please -write us to know
Who sent it and if at all possible send
in your picture, A little later when
figs and olive oil is ready we will send
you some as well as our picture. Many
regards from all of its, We again
thank you and every one who by his
contribution made this parcel possible,
With greetings.
Your uncle,
A. Eliopoulos
We also greet you.
