Mr. Loudon,
I HAVE observed, with much furprize, that a certain
Matthew Hollenback hath advertised me in your pa
?"uf° r " ot acc ' ?ti ^ a cbal ^ge from him. Could
I believe you were acquainted with his character, 1
fhood be equally surprised at your permitting so vile
a fellow to convey scandal through the channel of
yourpaper. We r e the public acquainted with Matthew
Hollenback, I ffiould, perhaps, be indifferent as to
his publication, or any other reflections he might caff
on my character.
I shall not enter into a detail of the difference which
happened between Hollenback and me, but only ani
madvert upon the two matters he principally complains
of, to wit, my threatniog « to horsewhip him without
*executing the promise, and my refufing to give him
“ gentleman's fatisfaftion."
