Cnmmin. opens the cnrrrspondencrh a nois to Col. Se.ier, in which he states. that, fnr sundry things said and done pFiSf thereto, hs would, wi.Iim thirty days from s.ase, as,tAnp-t "n the latter for honorable saiisfaction.. ssNu- nner"us professional engagements involving duties to others" says he, make it nrces- sary that a delay of one month should take place." before sending the challenge.
