looked or, if the former were purposely sup
pressed, there is nohlng improbable in the
belief that the latter PAS shared the same fate.
But this letter may have been received by
Mr.. Crawford, and he may have forgotten it.
This, presume, may fairly demonstrate,
by shelving that MS menory has been extreme
" treacherous, ~ other ntaDces, OF tar greater
consequence. FOR tins purpose, beg leave,
IN the hrst pace, to cali the attention OF your
honorable BODY 10 has oath, before the commit

Regardless OF the sanitary admonlt'ons OF the
proVerb " OF the glass windows" he has treat
ed my oath somewhat freely, ana he can have
no reasonable cause to complain if his ozcn shall
undergo slight Investigation.

he SAYS, " iHeuer sHacts9nea ths OMISSION Of ANY
