The House of Quality of talking The Orange Society held their annual oyster supper in L. 0. L. No. 1136 on Friday evening Nov. 17th. A numâ€" ber of friends accepted the invitations sent out by the members. After amâ€" pie justice had been done to the oysters and other dainties provided by the ladies, the meeting was called to orâ€" der by Mr Jas. Knox who acted as chairman. A good program was renâ€" dered, which consisted of gramophone selections, recitations, by Misses M McLean and Rita Kinnel, songs by Misses Sylina Sackett and Clara Wilâ€" son and Mr Alex Richardson who nevâ€" er fails when called on; together with splendid selections from the string ‘ band. ‘The Company dispersed after singing the National anthem, all unitâ€" | ing in saying they had spent a very | enjoyable evening.

And in the face of this showing, your friend, the lawyer, and a few others upon the preteuce of there being no marl in the country, carried a resofuticn to have the works removed or rather destroyed. That, 1 think is the propâ€" or wav of putting it, and uvon the strength of that resolution. haye taken upon themselves to take uptions upon rock deposits, amounting, I am tolid inonecuetoslm“dinmozbeno halt a million. Â¥Your money and mine pyu=t You think the big fellows don‘t want the company to pay a dividend. All for a puspose. I again agree with you, and we are all trying to find out what that purpose is, and up to the resent time have tailed to do so. Mr %hrhard: partly solves the problem. He says a diyidend never will be paid until it comes from the rock cement; I got that version of it direct from himself. And you think it is just the same old story, the big fish gobbles up the little uones, and I think if those tellows, with your friend the lawyer, at the hcead of them, succeed in their purpuse, there soon won‘t be any small fish to gobble. J In reply to yours of the 22nd, I may just say that I agree with you in all you have said regarding ‘the trickery that has been going on, in the place that you and I have invested our money in. You chink the concern is about the same as all other conmpanies, a down r{pfbt swindle from beginning to end. Up to the present time I agree with you, a big swindle it has been. Buat I differ from you regarding the end, I am in hopes the end of the affairs of the company from this out, will be an exception to the general rule and will yet come out alright. ‘ Mr Wiusoxn Dear Sir,â€" Now I am going to ask you a few qnestions. This long letter in the paâ€" pers : _ Is it your letter or is it dictated by Gilbert McKechnie? Do you kold any stock in the Co. ? What is your business ? Have you a store ? Have you any marl beds or an interest in any that you would like to dispose of (some times there are wheels within wheels?) Is it true that Gilbert McKechnie got ¢5000 worth of stock allotted to him ? I mean watered stock. Did he sell a lake to the Co. for $4500 which is of little or no value to the Company? Has he any more Iakes or marl beds to sell or an interest in any directly or indirectâ€" ly? How much does the Company pay in taxes per year. Yours Truly, Morrison Wilson, Woodstock. P . S..â€"Is it true that the committee which was appointed by the council to search for marl has refused and does refuse to tell the Cement Co where they have located large quantities of marl ? M. W. I am in favor of leaving the mill v here it is if there is sufficient marl at hand to keep the mill running for as you say for fifty years. Is this marl easily got at or would it cost say 50000 dollars to get it ? Iunderstand some parts of the country is very rough and rocky and would cost an immense sum of money to build a railroad I think this company is similar to most comâ€" panies, a downright swindle from beâ€" ginning to end, and the few big men who are running it get the money and the small fellows are frozen or bought out when they get sick and are getting no dividends. The big fellows don‘t want a company to pay a dividend all for a purpose, Same old story, big fish gobbling up the little ones, and generâ€" ally it is the small fellows who put up the money and the big tellows put up nothing and still hold a controlling inâ€" terest by being assigned a lot of waterâ€" ed stock which never cost them one cent. _ Unless a man is on the ground ficoor, he had better be out altogether or. he will soon be frozen out. Pres. S. G. MacKay and have told him more than once that the mill might just as well be shut down as running for nobody was receiving any benefit from it only those who are running it. Mr Cochrane, Sir, I have received a copy of the Durham Chronicle and have also read your letter. I put up $2000 of hard cash to the Durham Cement Co. and of course I have received nothing in reâ€" turn. Iam very well acquainted with Since writing the foregoing, Mr Cochrane has handed us the following letters for publication, which explain themselves. â€"Ed.

Not a word of truth in it. The largest deposit found is within 24 miles ofgthe track, said to be over 200 acres in a block. Mr McKechnie owns a small portion of it. The next question, did he sell a lake to the compsany for $4,500? He did. Did I net tell you in my letter that Gilbert was a man if he sold you a fat steer he waniled every dollar that was in him.
