10 THE EDXIOE, Sib, — With reference to the letter in your last over the signature "M. Mannix," I wish to nay that I was a patient in the aama ward, only one bed separating Mr Mannix and myself. I am, therefore, in a position to write fairly and impartially. My own opinion is that Mr ,Mannix had no reasonable canae for complaint j on the con trary, I tbink every attention was shown him. Mr Mannix was abusive, and by his language made himself objectionable not only to the inmatej of the ward, but to tb* nursei and those in authority. For myself I oannot speak too highly in praiao of the treatment I experienced during my enforced stay in the institution, the nurses both day and night showing me every attention and kindness, and I venture to say that in no other Hospital in New Zealand qonld one find nurses more attentive and kind than those we happily possess in our Hospital. I may state that Mr Mannix's language at the time he xsfen to was of the loirojt, and had he been dismliied he would only hare had hirasnlf to blame,— l am, eto,, W. Cumberland.
