The author studies the existence of positive solutions for the following boundary value problem (BVP) formulated for a second order difference equation \[ -\Delta^2y(n-1) = f(n,y(w(n)))\;,\;n\in [a,b] \] \[ \alpha y(n-1) - \beta\Delta y(n-1) = \zeta(n)\;,\;n\in [\tau_1,a] \] \[ \gamma y(n) + \delta\Delta y(n) = \eta(n)\;,\;n\in [b,\tau_2] \] with \(a\), \(b\) (\(b>a+1\)) integers and \(\Delta\) the forward difference operator, a discrete analogue of a similar BVP for a second-order functional differential equation. Two existence theorems are proved and relations to previous results are established.
