MR. FAUNTLEROY.

TO TUE EDITOR.

Stu-47uskillad, as a boy at my age must cer..
tainly be, in any art or method of writing—and still more dis.
qualified by the heart-rending anguish of my situation:,l
throw myself on your compassion, to aid my appeal to the British
Public in behalf of my poor, lost, sacrifised, murdered fatil.:l !
and Oh ! if they cannot save his life, let the agonies of my dis.
.tracted mother, and myyouth, my inaocence, my tears prevail
on them to be just to his reputation, and not to believe those
false and cruel insinuations, which unfeeling men would asucu.
mulate on our affliction. My dear mother never, never reproaches
him—loves him most tenderly—and dies with grief and horror
at his fate ; to me he has ever been a fond, dusting father, and
to society, in all actions of his life, but those for which his lift
is forfeited, an amiable and virtuous man. This, anti this only,
is the truth ! While I have life, I cannot cease to cherish his
Memory with affection and with anguish ; nor shall my prayer
to Heaven ever cease to implore that my country may not dis.
cover too late, that to take the life of u fellow-creature. for any
offence but murder, is a much greater crime than any that can
be charged on my dear father—that it is not equity, but cruelty
—not justice, but revenge.
I am, Sir. the most wretched of the human race,
Nov. 1112,1. HENRY FAUNTLBROY.
