TINE public doubt amused in observing that
l. when Mr. 'T,drn driven 10 the wall with his
fraudulent patent, h. attempts 10 shield hns,ll be-
hind his mock d nifty. aud talks about his condeScsn-
sion, &c. in answering MS. Tho breriiy Of his last
communication is IT'S j. u,t ian and we think those oil
the public, who are unacquuintrd with ~ VIII moi
take our characters from Mr. Tildrn, i they become
satisfied he is di.lnrciestcd witness, aud whose
vcracity is unqursiionabe, On the fret qualification
the public can have doubt and can show him
Objectionable the other, ii he will not get sngry
for being expOsed.
Mr. TIlJen says awe would here state that the
TllGcn and the Rowel stove Too in principle and
construction and there is not plate 10 the Rowell
stove that bears any analogy to any plate in stove
The stoves are "a dissimar 10 each other az Con.
ants and Wooson's, except that boh have elevated
ovens" Now, that the public may Judge whether
he that which is true absolutely false,
assert, that the engraving ut the head OF l. & G
Robnson's advertisement is correct representation
OF RowelPs stove, as made by said Ro5lnsons in the
fall Of 1889, and challenge Mr. Ttlen TO deny
assertion, and point out The difference, i any. The
pubic can whether not they are alike IN pfin-
ciplG and construction.
Mr. Tlden next says, in substance, that we claim
ed al FIRST that he stole Rowel's invention and took
a patent on that alone, and when we found there
new plate in Tilden's Stove not found in Rowel's,
and when Holmes statement came out, we then
claimed that Town invented the three curved plate
and he would thereby insinuate that abandoned
Rowell's claim, alter Holmes statement appeared,
and assumed different ground. Our first and only
charge was, that Town invented the three curved
plate and Rowe invented The rest of the stove, and
that Tllden stole their inventions and took out pa
tent them. See our advertisement published Sept
Z, $40
Mr. Tilden next says that I'VE have not dare not
and cannot answer Mr.. Holmes statement Terri
bic Terrible BIT be 50 good 10 read the
postscript TO advertisement published for sever
al weeks after the 9Th of October last.
Mr. Tilden next says that he let the October term
pass wihop; suing u.s. because he was obliged so 10
do or that did not dare sell the Farmers Stove
until suing lime out Tor that term and that he
would have sued previous to that term il we had
given him opportunity The lime for the service
OF wrs, returnabe 10 that term OF the court, expired
on the 2lst day OF September last. One Of ou pat
terms for the farmers Stove was made by Holmes,
Tiden's pattern maker, in May last 1idcn called
at Mr. Webbs house in August last and OF
our said stoves in We notified Tiden by an adj.
versement dated Sept. 4lh and published in three Of
the papers of this village. that had the farmers
Stove in use ourselves and had sold number of them
to others and should defend all who bought OF US or
our agents; and his rebut,er dated Sept T. published
the next week, acknowledges notice IA days before
the time of service Of writs for the Octobs Cour! ex
pred.
Before Mr.. Tilden publishes any more statements
like his brief reply would recommend 10 him
one of the Universal Sreng thening Pas!er5 his
Uranium awhile, 10 strength N his .nory for his
statement about our beng willing 10 pay at least $780,
is also false. Near the close of his communication
respecting us, he has, accidently no doubt, told one
truth, and that is, that seIfshncss is paramount with
him. and that he has regard for the rights oil Others
but lets them take OF the nselves if they can
We expected he would vince under this lash of jus
tico, but did not expect he would plead guilty, ill just
before the session Of the Circuit Court As he seems
anxious 10 retire from the public gaze, are willing
10 take leave oil him now, if he chooses, bidding him
welcome 10 all be laurels he has won but al parir Q
we are compelled to say that his inventive genius
shines consPicuousy in conjurlng up false
ments, regardless Of what has been aid and done be-
fore 10 disprovo them, than il does in mecf a1sm.
We shall continue 10 supply all who wish 10 pur-
chase the Farmers, and other cooking stoves, box
and paror stoves, sjovepPe, kettles, tin and copper
ware, &C. &c. and defend as before stated.
