Gentlemen :-- Kindly permit ~me through the medium of the Press to thank all my supporters and workers in the late election. I adopt this aven- ue because of the impossibility of calling on each individual. My de- sire is to recognize not only the ar- dent and enthusiastic Liberal-Con- servative, the merchantile class and the student, but also the many of the Reform party who not only voted for me, but showed me many courtesies and much kindness. To the British born and the young Canadian yoter I offer special thanks. To the ladies of the county I offer the homage due to the gentle sex, and ask them to remember how grateful I am in the knowledge that their activities were plainly exerted' in my aid. To the workingman in the city, town and village, I extend my thanks, and of- fer my personal good will aud public seryice, desiring them to feel that as their representative I will endeayor to advance their interests and pro- mote and support every measure looking to their welfare and prosper- ity. To the Press, my warmest thanks. The great industrial and farming interests of this, the best County in anada, will find me ever ready to fight for their legitimate rights, and the protection of their mutual inter- ests. IJ thank both classes. 1 believe that Canada is destined to be the most blessed country in the world, and I hope and trust that all loyal Canadians will unite in strengthening the hands of the Hon. R. L. Borden, and his Cabinet, so that the country will throb with a quickening pulse intent on the up- building of a great British Common- wealth, which will ultimately be the greatest bulwark and defence of British ideals the world over. And permit me also to thank even those who did not support us, for the | ° manly fight they offered, and the fine spirit in which they accepted defeat. Finally to all other well wishers, resident sympathizers and non resi- dents near and afar, whether voters or not, I return thanks and beg tore- main, Yours sincerely, orphy. H. B.
