blevc him. No NY dear Mister Ban-
o ner if We was both put in the same

t up an lcvein it all to yourself. Ii you
luv us then Mister Banner let us stay
in our " County where we want to
stay !; and il you luv the peple of Clare.
mount clere away the rubbish of Clarcn-
don Lawsuits, and let them have a qui.
ct time and a short turn to themselfs-
That is the genuin way to Iuv us /; and
to luv them, Nistsr Banner. But if
you luz the Lawyers, and | hope MIS-.
ter Bdaner you is not one Of Elm, or if
j. you is, that you is not much Of a one,
q Tor they Amt no ways to my likens,
{ then try to keep us together in strife
and confusion, where It's all pay and
: no profits, all eckspense and no game,
all time and nothin saved, and the
) Buzzards is the turst and the last at.
the feste.
Now | hope Mister Banner you Will
i publish this as you done my letter Of
last yere; for if it is true, why the.
: truth ort to be spoken ; and if It is not
true, then it ort to be conradicted :
and if it be tu cckspensive to you to
t print it, send down your Bill to
n Wrights Bluff p. O, to my signitter
e and it will be paid for as Nh advertise.
