To A. KNIGHT, Esq.
-WHEN I was first told that you had published
V a Letter addressed to me, on thesubjed of Mr. For-
syth's Treatment of Trees, I felt no anxiety concerning it,
nor was at any pains to procure the Book. I conceived that
it was written by a GaNTLaMAN,. and that 'Of course it could
contain nothing that was unbecoming one of that charader to
write, and, as what we had both said on that *subject was
before the Public, I felt no difficulty in abiding the decisioff
of that Public concerning it. lam sorry; however, to tind,
on reading your Book of late, that I had bee,: in a mistake
concerning yoU, and that you hart there published- such
things as necessarily call upon,ine to take this public notice
of them. It would be degrading the charader I bear, how-
ever, to multiply assertions unsupported by proofs, which
might be contradided in the same manner as I have experi.:
enced, without affording to the Public any adequate means of
discriminating truth front falsehood. In order to avoid this
futile kind of altercation, without danger of error, I beg
leave to propose, that when you next come to London, (which
I understand you usually do once a year), you will,be so can-
•did as to appoint a day and hour, when you will meet me in
Kensington. Gardens, accompanied by some Gentlemen of
sound understanding, capable of observing fads, and of
drawing just conclusions from them ; and if I shall then
fail hi proving to their full conviction, .from undeniable evi-
dence to be then produced, that you have
.published in that
Work.unfounded and injurious calumnies, and that you have
represented things in a manner very different from what on a
thorough examination they will be found to be, I shall sub-
mit to any punishment that these Gentlemen shall please to
award, on the supposition that you previously agree to sub-
mit to their award, should the case be reversed.. This is the
only answer your Book seems to claim from
