The Rev. C. C. Colton.
TO TiHE EDrTOR OF THE TIMES. Sir,-With reference to the first part of your correspondent'^ state. ment yesterday respectingt this gentleman, I azsure you lie is rnistakert -Ilr. (Colton did actually, as 1 know from the bankers thenselves, draw a very considerable sum from a banking-thouse in Pall-mall soine days previous to his departure. But your correspondent rrust have laboured under the error that I myself did for sorne timne-. namely, that if llr. Colton drew any sum of the kind stated, it must have been from one of three banks, with each of which 3, as an inti- mate acquaintance of his, knew him to have done husinucse-Messrm Hoare's, in Fleet-street, and hMeEsrs. Rammerslev-a and the house of Morland and Co., in Pall-mall; and it is certainly true, that from neither ot these houses gid he draw the money in question. But it clearly was not known to your correVpondent, that a short time prc- vious to Mr. Colton'sleavir.g London, he trunsferred the wholeof his accounts to the house of R37som and Co., in the New-buildings, Pall-mall East, and from this bank it w2as that 17r In- Ai;t z-nr a iaTge sum. I arn, :Sir, your humble servant, z. TO TIfE EDITOR OF THE TI ES. Sir.-Mention having been mnatle in your journal that the Ret. ;rr. Colton, before his dimappear%nce in AMay last year, had received of a banking-house iP. Pall-mall a large sum of money in Bank. notes of 1001. each (which statement, I perceive, is contradicted in your Ieaper nf this date), I subjoin the numbers and dates of two such notes,t wlhich, with others, were actually paid to him on the 5thof Aprilprecedingthe date mentioned. The difference ofthetime between the two transactinns may prevent any thing condusive being drawn from the fact I annoince to you: but as these particnlars nay, by possibilty, be useful as a clue tto the inquiries now on foot respecting the gentleman alludetl to, you are at liberty or not, rc- cording as you may think p roper, to publisb them for the infbnnaa. tion of parties disposed to follow up the subject. 1 am, Sir, your obedient cenrnt A guist 2ti.
