can justly complain But we believe it has been the

no obstacle. But as there is report circulating,
which misrepresents our position and feelings the
matter feel that it due to ourselves his near

this be true we, his nearest neighbors, who know
him WELL have never experienced it. nor witnessed
it in any of his public private dealings. Such is
not his character. IF he be oppressive we are at
loss to know how it has been exercised for. IN
