The following is letter written by Mr.
Frelinghuysen to committee of gentlemen,
who invited him TO be present al meeting
convened 10 express an opinion on the sub
ject of the duel in which Cilley was shot:
TRENTON, N. J March 5th. 1898
GESTLEMEN:-O my way 10 the cars
for this place this morning, received your
note of invit ,ton TO attend meeting of our
fellow citizens at Newark 10 morrow eve
ming. on the subject of The late duel at Wa
shington. | sincerely regret that my pro-
fessional duties here will deiain me from tie
meet.ng-for if erer az ofccsion called for
an oppression of the public feeling, The late
scenes of SHOCKING VIOLENCE most
solemaly demand it. Truly 'sthe blood of
war has been shed in peace" and this in
high places and among the lawmakers of
ouT country.
THE LAW OF THE DUELIST is
AN OUTRAGE UPON EVERY PRIN-
CIPLE OF ORDER AND HUMANITY.
IT SETS THE LAWS OF GOD AND
THE INSTITUTIONS OF A CHRIS
TIAN PEOPLE AT DEFIANCE, and If
this MURDEROUS SPIRIT be not met
and firmly and fenlessly REBukED by
the .frowns of public sentiment, on as wiU
abide much Of The guilt Of MURDER
1t can be checked and elfectually repressed,
whenever the people, true TO their high du-
ties, shall rise in the majesty of public OPT
MON and from upon these ATRCCWUS
DEEDS OF VIOLENCE; and the blood
of the MURDERED, the tears of tie be-
reared, and the commands Of a righteous
God, call upon them nor to speak, ana bear
their stern and indignant testimony against
This HEAVEN DARING SIN.
| hope, gentlemen, that your meeting and
proceedings may exert a powerful influence,
and with indred demonstrations all over the
land, prevail to crush this alarming evil.
