DfAH Sib: rieiise permit me, tbrongh
your interesting and valuable paper, to re
turn my bumble and heartfelt thankl to
your correspondent, for bis remarks in re
gard to me and my unfortunate career, lie
is the first end ouly man whn ever attempted
(0 slate, In publlo print, anything but tbe
lowest scon! and slurs iu rrgaid to me.
Any man of reason knowVwbat evils beset
me at Iks tlmo tbe possession of tbe prop
erly become vested in me. Hooey was no
oi'ject to any one, and I was set upon by
vultures of all persuasions, and on all pre
tences. I was a minor and hardly knew
wbat to do. I tried to bare a gnardian ap
pointed, but, under tbe excitement at tbat
time, tbe ball demanded was fabuloua, and
failed. Every one I met bad advice for me,
and, In the end, wtated to, or did borrow
money. I could got 00 peace M borne for
beres lor pn jects of every descriptioo. I
never bandied any amount of money. Be
twixt my ageuta on tbe farm, and a boat or
self couatrtuted agents, my share was small.
Soma or your townsmen assisted faithfully
to rid me or money and property, I should
have thought all would be satisfied, when
tbey got a II I possessed, bnt It appears thai
some miserable satrap of uewspaper corres
pondents', either disappointed at not getting
a share, or prompted bv their (evil nature,
silil try to keep up a cry ol the fabulous
amount I spent, and ia snob absurd ways.
1 have si ace, as before, tried to earn an
honest living, which I know ii mora than
many of my defamerajdov
Should your correspondent be In this lec
tion, I shall be very happy to have him stop
and see me, when I shall tell bla inch facta
In regard to my 'Rise and ?all" as may In
terest him and corroborate, bin remark- In
regard to me, nod great (deal more. By
giving this a place In your paper, you will
recelr tbe thank of
Your HumUeJServsni,
