ample testimonials to the contrary ; it is a character I
so much despise that, however mean and unworthy a

the earliest opportunity of offering him convincing
proofs to the contrary ; and I have now the profped
of a speedy interview with the gentleman, being about
to be relieved from my command at Wyoming.

CHATHA M, March 5, 1782.
Mr. Loudon,
I HAVE observed, with much furprize, that a certain
Matthew Hollenback hath advertised me in your pa
per for not accepting a challenge from him. Could
I believe you were acquainted with his character, I
should be equally surprised at your permitting so vile
a fellow to convey scandal through the channel of
your paper. We r e the public acquainted with Matthew
Hollenback, I should, perhaps, be indifferent as to
his publication, or any other reflexions he might cast
on my character.
I fliall 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 threatning " to horsewhip him witnout
" executing the promise, and my refufing to give him
“ gentleman's fatisfaXion."
As to my not horsewhipping him, he most certain
ly is to blame for it, by not comply ing with the con
dition, which was coming into the fort after I had for
bidden him on pain of that punishment. 1
Wether I did right or wrong in not giving him the
fatisfa&ion he fpaks of, I Shall not determine. My
objections did not arise from a principle of cowardice,
but the meanness of his character, and the reluctance I
possessed to put myfelf upon ^footing with so notoriouf
]y vile,and unworthy a person. Matthew Hollenback
was, at that time, a petty fattier, vending a few pins
and drams at the post where I had the honour to be in
trufted with the command.
