fdence and commenda lions Of friends and neigh.
bors, who know us in the usual intercourse Of
life, with our weaknesses and virtues; and this
sword presented by The members OF the General
Assembly OF our Commonwealth, and others as
socialed with them from the counties contiguous
to my own, conveys the pleasing reflection that
do not leave my quiet home, for The busy scenes
in Mexico, al the head OF my reg menl, without
enjoying the approving smiles and confidence Of
those whose friendship ] cherish as do life
The sword is The soldiers al-and YOU have
