out Ut the question, and dwelt solely on fiction.
He has misrepresented me from Alpha to Omega.
He has preferred charges against me, of which
am as innocent a child whose lot it will be to

less were the fa5ricatlons Of his own malicious

he was in attendance. never was Deist in any
sense OF the word, nor did profess to b. re-
claimed al any Camp meeting in Tennessee, nor
at any other meeting in any country l defy Mr..
Harris to prove his assertions in this particular.
He says that l became a Unirersalist, and that he
can prove It by referring to 'labored lelters," ad-
