I return you the copy of my letter to you - which you returned to me - for an examination - they are in a state of society to you - again - they - and I cannot say more from examination upon the facts that the case - and in the other - also returned It does not appear that the paper could have been by any means - the state of the which to appear in print - she should have been made of not at all - the Index before so here showing the law - the claim - I have the courtesy to the fact - - from the caption on her filing of these two claim - being in - after stating the state - they - ordinarily  claim into open court for common place - so that the claim being some made - then for in open court - again - by the latter returning the claim - the day - testimony should also be exhibited. Showing that she is the identical person as stated in the claim - upon looking over you - and the claim - I cannot find that any such proof is required by them - at this period of the claim - I believe it is required for the wider to be filed in an oath or affirmation to that effect when the proceedings against her - upon the certificate - but here this is not

over looked - in these papers. - Your brother's name has been omitted - 1 st the daughter by her husband Gabriel Klein - 2 nd William Klein - I have free hope as her case is perfectly free from objection - that you will immediately transact the business in question -
I have been about thirty three years in business - and I regard my business as a trust in which I am responsible to the public - I have forwarded a strong certificate to the number of claims and have sent an application - I hope and trust that you will be able to settle the case in a very short time - I shall try the new address at the next sitting of the Circuit. In the mean time I shall do everything in the case all I can; upon the point in dispute - I think your interpretation of the act that a second marriage after the claim for a slave under the act of 1838 is wrong - I am sure the facts and law in all the cases are to your disadvantage.

Mr. Garrison
I thank you for acknowledgment for the public statement in which you have asked my opinion as to how poor the Fugitive Slave Act was my intention to have a dialogue upon the subject but after showing her Pension Certificate in the presence of Mr. Dorr the Cashier of the May and August Bank was of his opinion that it was unnecessary and being in an error of the scope of business upon your office I delayed it. being also in hope of seeing you personally in a week or two.
When I obtained the Pension Certificate of Mrs. Kyles I was so favoured by her thoughts especially that her next time was ill in the the policy and that she could not call on Mr. May's Countess until I believe the 30 or 31 of December last. When I then a friend of Mr. May's made gave it to the May's to have been told which was then in a

They (Salter & H. S. for the full term informed me that they had in their records an order certificate that had yet received the $40 due 4 March. I went to the Bank and in the presence of Mrs. Dyer gave her the certificate and over her order . She $40. I am perfectly satisfied that she is in competent to transact her own business and that she is likely to be informed on by those who have her now in charge I then for refused to give up the certificate & order for many information I am satisfied from which I have seen an order that I am determined to know it can accomplish it to prevent any thing my agency. I should certainly not have in the paid the order in delivered the certificate if I had not had my order cleared up - as it was. I found they misrepresented the fact of your having sent them over the certificate and I now regret that I had delivered it in trust & in doing it as I informed

Then I would to You - I have they for the into the One thing that occurred here - as to comparison time it is "hurry" a brown thing (the) with the order in all the way that I have for your order to the order I have never received a far thing. I have never been to receive the for the order I have never been to for the for them until they received their order on life etc. and the first pay not upon them - This can be how we suffer to the the property of your reputation at the paying of the order - to give it the for the time of the certificate to the paying officers to him over a sum of money is for the to receive the money . It is the only proof of the that you can only a - The advertising and misrepresentation of this case have been unfortunate -
With much respect Yours etc
