Morris and Ro- The f bertlon have appealed, that these gen- were I tlemen are under a miflake in fuppoling lions : that I have tlated to my fiiends, that ty,an the combination said, to be planned and prefer ' formed by them would ruin me-, or was little Intended to do f> ; 1 have, indeed re- me. presented, that from the peculiar na- obvio ture of my manufa&ure, il was essen- tious tint to it's profpei ity that it rtiould be wouli fold separate from productions of the ed to fame kind, manufactured here, where all. no brewer has had the fame experience J ," n ei in making porter : That, without this \ rendc precaution, all porter puichafcd from j knov the 'oottlets, m>ght be consumed as i altho mine, whether brewed by me or not : they That, on this account, peculiar agree- even ments were formed, undei which it has ed. generally been fold : That very confi- calle derable orders were given to me for sup- nor plies to be fvirniftied during the ensuing J son i year: That the nrjaterials necessary to j bond brew the porter, for these otders, were men already provided : That the parties, J beer ■who had given them, had been, as I only was informed, perfuade'd by MefTrs. I thef Morris and Robertfon, to transfer a had part of their demands to another brew- I trad er, and to combine in refufing to adhere I j to the orders they had given, unless 1 I e( j , should relinquish the terms under which I t j-jj s my eontrafts had been hitherto made: I OUJ That, from the coropulfive efFecft of this I tof) combination, I had found myfelf oblig- I mel td to aequiefce in the dertiands of the I p re bntTTers, and had agreed to give Up the I |j yiipulations objeßed to : That, having I ma , declared that this, new arrangement j would oblige me, for the security of my j 3CC erediti to bottle myfelf a portion of J what I should manufadture, a new com- j t { le hinatio* was formed, by which the hot- I r j Q( tiers were engaged not to take from I me any fpecilic quantity (and confe- j hai quentlv not to adhere to the orders J W j l given me) unless [ should relinqmfh j this proposed measure : That I could I t(J not do this, beeaufe 1 (hould then have I t^( no ftandatd to which I might I a(J( for the quality of my porter : That in I p r | consequence of these combinations, the | ter disposal of my porter, for the present j m{ year, was become altogether precarious ; j co| whereas, before the interference of these I pe gentlemen took place, I had received I j • written pilfer! for almost all that I could j c j Q manufacture: That, in eonfequence fe] hereof, I felt myfelf discouraged from tg| preparing large quantities of this pcrifh- [ p () «blc u.ui uu ov the principal material purchased for that b( , purpose had already fallen considerably, I N and was likely to continue to do 10, I 1 etJ {hould unavoidably fuffer through this I te * conduct, not only a diminution in the Ip( sale of my manufacture, but also a con- I b j Sderable'lofs upon the raw material : J tl . That this conduct did not appear to me I t j to be juftified either by any provocation r ; on my part, or by any neceflity on | ql ' ' their's : That there could be no provo- g cation on my part, as I was not confci- I ous of having done either of them an j n unfriendly office in my life, nor any I ( | neceflity on their's, beeaufe they were at liberty, if they found my terms in- p convenient, to resort for their fuppliesto I t | other brewers : That there could have 1 1 been no difficulty, on their parts, in ob- I p taining these supplies on the usual no- I tice beeaufe most of the brewers in this I c town have been for several years in the 1 f practice of brewing porter, and this I a opinion appears to be verified by the j a publication of these gentlemen, whode- I j clare, that, at this time they are able to I ( obtain such supplies in a fatisfaftory J manner.—The gentlemen complain of j the agreements under which I have been I , accustomed to fell my porter ; these a- j greements provided that I should re- ( serve a ftipulaied quantity of porter for a limited time, which was generally from twelve to fifteen months : That I should, during this time, bear the riik of it's becoming spoiled or loft : That 1 should be paid for it as delivered ; that I should deliver it at such times, and in such quantities, as might be required ; and that the other party should not, during the period of the contrad, either mix my porter with any other liquor, or vend any other American porter: These agreements were intended, on ' the part of the battlers, to secUre to them a supply of porter, whieh, with out such agreements, would have been ' precarious. The intention, on any part, I was to be certain of a sale for the por ter I should brew, to secure to me the credit of rty own rnaoufa&ure, and to give a steady fepport to the trade of bottling my porter. The bottlers, who have signed fwch agreements, have, in canfequfnce, been supplied with porter duritg many months when others were without it i at which times 1 was fuf- ferinfc the rife leakage and waflc of the ufu the porter, together with the .Hconvc- ter l * nience anting from the want of the t Fhe p funds, caflcs, and cellar room, occupied fcarcit) h v it—at the fame time, others were appear frequently seeking to purchase it from tlemen me, and sometimes at higher prices, that uj The parties frith whom these contraas I laid were formed were of different defenp- r| c>th< lions ; Tome of them, persons of proper- the pn ty, and well known to me, others often tar fro presented thcmfelves, who had very The.r little property, and wert strangers to Jamiar me. With refpeft to the latter it was and V obviously necessary to make very cau- withot tious agreements, and as diftinaions .i' would have been invidious, I was oblig- agree® : ed to make nearly the fame terms with nega i • all. But whatever the terms might be ohject ■j in exp.effion, in praaice, they were Kobe, i | rendered easy, as these gentlemen well men to i ! know ; 1 have never enforced them, morni 9 i although I have frequently been told into n : they were not obi-.-rved ; 1 have not e i - even generally required them to be sign- tome s ed Mr. Robertfon has never been an anl - called upon, to sign any such agreement, nop u |- nor has Mr. Morris, or any other per- but tl g I son done so for two years pad. The n*tioi 0 bondage therefo e, which these gerule- as ind e men have fuffirred, has certainly not ties i j been of a grievous kind ; nor was it t 1 only light, but voluntary, for neither ot to th. i. I these gentlemen, nor any other person, an i a I had been pressed by me, to make aeon- my e tract - fer e I It is true that 1 meant to have cauf- nat 'j u Med the agreement to be generally signed y- £ I this present year, for which 1 had vari- I ous reasons; as to the conditions oi the " I contraas 1 have surely a right without I meriting the charge of oppression, to ie I prescribe the terms whereon 1 am wil- I ling to contraa for the sale of my own 'S I manufaaure. If these terms were bur- nt I thenfome, the gentlemen were wrong to 1 y j accede to them at any time, and would j have been right in refufing to renew n * I their orders at the expiration of the pe 1 )t- I riod of their contrail. Had they con- ' m 1 tented themselves with this, they would j have heard no complaint tr»m me. But :,s I when I was informed that they went to I my other cuttomers, to persuade them Ito transfer to another brewer, a part of \ IV ' I those demands which had been already e . I addrefTed me, ajid to combine together 111 J fir ft for the purpose of overruling my I terms of sale, and afterwards to prevent :nt I me from bottling a portion of my own 18 ' I commodity. It was not to be ex-( I peaed that I should not think myfelf U I '"j or ou ' £ l not complain. Nor Ido I only think the aflociations them- jv llce I selves injurious to me, but also the and om I terms in which one of them is exprefied, nan at I being under any obligation myfelf. I J 'y> I Neither of which intimations is found- 1 '» }led in faa. 1 could not make my own j t^llt I teims, beeaufe the other party had! I P owcr to re f u^e them : 1 could not I on " I bind othets, having no power over | ' a ' : J them, and I , was under a heavy obliga-1 J™ I tion myfelf, viz. that of keeping at my I '' on 1 rilk during many months, considerable I on I quantities of a perifhablc article. The I 3V °- gentlemen have stated, that I proposed c [ 'k'" Ito increase the penalties of the agree-1 p c 1 an I ments in proportion to the increase of I Ai an y I the orders, and as an agreement for I G v ' rc I sixty barrels has been published, with aI Be 1 I penalty of £ 200, it may be understood I - s to I that the proposed increase would be al-1 £ ' iave I together exorbitant. Had Mr. Morris Ip- I published the agreement formed with I p, 1 n ?" I him, it would have appeared that in lif I contraaing for several hundred barrels, | it t ' l . e I sometimes no penalty at all was affixed, I tlm I and never more than £ zoo. This year I ' '' 1e l as g reater ° rt i ers were gi vcn l^an 11 36 " li r B< * e " I lieved could be consumed, to secure me I t0 1 from the rifle consequent on this, I pro-1 ; or y I posed to augment the penalty, but the I I highefl sum I mentioned was £ 500, I ecn 1 which would have boine but a small I B a ' I proportion to the vallie proposed to be I contraaed far. 1 I :r for P :rally They state that I have had an exclu- I hat I five trade in my hands, of which Ia- I e risk vailed myfeif to reduce it to a system ; J hat 1 several brewers as I have already menti- I that oned, have constantly manufaaured 11 ind in porter for some years past, not only I ( lired ; since but before these gentlemen began I < 1 not, to deal with me. Persons in the bot- I either tling trade, have fold the porter of these , iquor, brewers during this petiod, and some I ; orter : of these bottlers have never dealt with I 1 d, on me at all. How theji can it be said I ure to that 1 had an exclu/ive trade in my j with- hands, or what preference could.l com- I e been mand'unlefs it arose fromtheeommodity I y part, itfelf ? They fay that my stock of por- 1 ic porter has been infufficient to supply them. I me the The winter before last 1 brewed to the I and to utmost extent of their order, and had a ade of surplus of 500 barrels. At that time », who I btewed for Mr. Morris more even iave, in than he thought it prudent to engage porter to take. The last winter I was prevent rs were ed from brewing an adequate quantity vas fuf- by «ihe yell#w fever, which kept away » 1 I > the usual supplies of barley. This w.n- I ter I was prepared to meet the email . ,j< , I The plea therefore .riling from the Une SJj„f m.n»f»a... d»«. appear to be well founded.
