Waterbirv, April 8, 1782.
THE Public, ..nd my friends in particular, are hereby in
formed, that the late advertisement in the Connedicut
Courant, under the signature of Samuel Steel, is withoutany
just foundation. He has wantonly {ported with truth, in the
many epithets which he has bellowed on an unhappy wife,
That I married Samuel Steel is my misfortune ; that I
have as his wife behaved indecent or unbecoming I deny,
and whether my connexion with him, or behaviour towards
him, or reports of him, have hurt his good name, let his
best friends judge.
He left my bed fortwo months before I left his board ; I
never run him in debt nor even threatened it. What he took
with mel hope he will return ; whathe took from me, that
is myinnocence, let him fettle that with God and bis own
conscience ; and if for the future he will not hurt his own
chara&er, I promise him I will not do it for him.
Marriage, 0 sacred ordinance of Heaven,
The last best seal of love to mortals given,
In public prints must now thy frowns and smiles
'Twixt man and wife, ride poll for scores of miles.
