—Would you allow me to state on behalf of the crofters that they have requested me to seek protection, in speaking formally before the Commission to-day, from the proprietor and factor and ground officer, and all other people in authority who may harass them for speaking the truth.
Mr N. B. Mackenzie, factor for the proprietrix of Arisaig.
—I am authorised to say, on behalf of the proprietors, that persons may speak freely and perfectly whatever grievances they may have, and that anything they may say to-day will not be used against them.
