To the Ed-itor of the Statesman, Srn,-The chamcteristic impude11ce ex· hibited by Dr. Boyle in his letter which appeared in the ST.ATESMAN of last week is an insult to the intelligent people of BowmanviUe, who have long known him well. His attempt to pose as an abused person an·d a martyr is ludicrous in the extreme. That the decision of the Police l.\fagistr&te does not please Dr. Boyle is not surprising. Nobody . expected it would please him. A man prevented from CMrrymg on a nefurious business, out of which he makes money, is not usually enamoured of the instruments which take him in ha'llld and administer fitting punishment. Dr. Boyle claims that he is regularly licensed to practice Phyaoi.c. This act, l~ewever much it may be regretted, is not · disputed, but it only makes the Dr's. ca11e worse. He has not only broken the l-8.w but he has violated the ttrust reposed in him as a member of an honorable prdfession . It is to be hoped that the medical men of the town and of the province will have the decency, the manliness, and honor to put down as far as lies ~u their power such aofilons as wmskey selling and (when that is stopped~ · indiscriminate granting of orders for liquo1· to any and every one who may apply ifor them. If they as ·a pr@fessional body do not unite in repudi· ati11g such conduct by one ef tl1eir number, a scandalized ·public may well doubt wl1ether they are the disinterested well· wiahers of humanity they so often claim to be .. Dr. 13oyle says that he will appeal t o a higher ceurt; though he may through some legal ·quibble quash the Police Magistrate's decision, · it will not raise him in the estimation of those who know the facts. '!Bowmanville is n()t 'p 9rhaps tke must moral place in the world but it still has some regard for law and order. !In conclusion Dr. Boyle is respectfully :reminded of that proverbial mixture. which the m@re i t was stirred the worse was its st eno<h.
