Dear Sir Your communication of the 23d inst. was
duly received, and an answer should more promptly
have been given but for the want of leisure hour and
doubt resting on my mind in regard to the propriety
OF noticing anonymous letters.
Nothing, now, so much influences me to accede to
your wish, as conviction of the importance OF the
facts which you wish to elicit from me- and thereby
difInse them more generally through society.
