Sent. 20. 1S~ sail of mack- erel catchers were in Provincetown har- bor during the storm. When the wind shifted one of them parted and went ashore on Long Point in the harbor . Two others drifted afoul just oil' Long Point Lighthouse and had flags up for hel p at noon . One steam yacht fouled a mackerel catcher, getting across her bows and broadside to the gale. Steam tug Confidence went to her assistance, hauling her ck-ar in a damaged condi- tion. Hark S. 11.

Tug Nov- elty towed her to Vineyard Haven. lo the hdUor of larmouUi ltegtstcr : Silt :—In your recent article concerning the "Register of Probate, etc.,"it seems to me that you have so Interwoven facts and opin- ions as to mislead the public , and perhaps cause some to think that" I have done some act as a county officer, that is dishonorable , If not dishonest. As I chiim that I have doue nothing, as Register of Probate, either dis- honorable or dishonest, I presume you will allow me the use of your columns to correct any wrong Impression that may have been given by your article. Chapter 158 of the Public Statutes provides that the salary of the Register of Probate for this county, shall be one thousand dollars. The same chapter also provides as follows:— "If deemed necessary by the Judge for any county, the Register shall be allowed annual- ly a sura not exceeding one third of his salary for extra clerical assistance actually per- formed , to be paid from the treasury of the commonwealth. The Judges In their respec- tive counties shall audit and approve the ac- counts of the register." The work of the Probate Court In this county his increased considerably since the salary of the Register was established , so much in fact, that the legislature , In 1SS7, af- ter a full hearing, increased the salary of the Judge to twelve hundred dollars. The Regis- ter a9ked lor no increase of salary, for the very good reason tint au increase , as needed , to the extent of three hundred and thirty- th ree dollars , ha-J al ready been provided for by the statute above quoted , subject to the discretion of the Judge , am:h amount only to be used as had lu-fin p:;id for extra clerical assistance actually performed. It is un- necessary, perhaps , for me to state that the Judge has approved and audited ail accounts which claim any part of the appropriation above al luded lo, and the legislature evident- ly thought , and I believe the public will tuinli that the Judge of Probate knows more, of the work in the registry of probate , and is bet ter qualified to .jud ge as to the necessity aud propriety of clerk-hire , than any other Individual , excepting perhaps the Register. In regard lo being employed by the Dis- trict Attorney several tiim.'s a3 a clerk , I would simply Bay that I know of no reason v/hy I should not have been , that I have never made any charge , but I have accepted the smallest .sum named by Jilm for the ser- vice. I believe that, I have saved the county much more than F have received , that I have never neglected duties owing to the county or state, and that neither county nor state has lost auy time by reason of my doing said work. In other words, Mr. Editor , I have served the cou nty aud state, as I believe, faithfully and well, have done them uo wrong either in law or good conscience, and will meet the most searching investigation /airly and hon- orably made, both as regards the time given , aud the attention paid , to the duties of my olrlce. Respectfully, Freeman H. Lotiirop, Register. AVe are unable to see how Mr. Lothrop controverts anything the Register has said in relation to his connection with the Probate office in this county. It is undeniable that. Mr. Lothrop eould perform all the duties of the office he was elected to perform if he cbose ; that he devolved a part of those du- ties upon others, and called upon the State to pay for sush service; that In the meantime he has taken a portion of the time for which he was paid to perform his official duties, for his own private emolument , and has alsa ta- ken extra pay from the State for such ser- vices performed in the time which the State was pa\ing others 1>r working Iu his stead. These facts are undeniable. Now as to the wonderful "increase of business"the last two or three years : It is a fact that the population of the "County, and consequently its death-rate and resultant business, have of late years considerably de- creased. There have been very few insol- vency cases to require attention. And the fact that the salary of the Judge has been In- creased counts for nothing; the Legislature didn't think it "necessary"that the Register should have any further compensation; If they had, they would have given it to him. Mr. L. Insists upon ringing iu the Jndge to support his raid upon the treasury. The Judge, it seems, listening to his suggestions, deemed further assistance "necessary." But this does not controvert the undeniable facts, that Mr. L. could perform all the duties he was elected to perform; that he did employ others to do them while he was otherwise engaged on his own business; and that he called upon the State to pay the bills. [Yarmouth Register. To the Editors of the Patriot : Sirs :—Mr. Swift's "undeniable facts," so far as they relate to any improper use of the lime or money of the public, I have already denied. His theory that because the death-rate in this count}' has decreased, the probate business could not have increased, amounts to nothing, for the records show that the cases in the probate court have largely increased in namber , and the stat- utes have also largely increased the va- riety of duties the probate court has to perform. His reference to the Judge iu his last paragraph, it seems to me, is as much a slur upon the Judge as upon myself ,and the Judge, I know, can answer it to the satisfaction of all inquirers. Respectfully, Freeman H. Lothrop, Register.
