Si a.,—Your endeavours to expose and put the public on
their guard against swindling and thimble rigging in a cer-
tain quarter is most praiseworthy, and in this all support anti
encouragement should be given you. I observe the cabal are

and tricking of every description be honourable, then are the
persons alluded to all honourable men, and quite gentlemen
