accepted by any of Ketchum's agents; or any

been reported and my informant is a resident

that Mr.. Jacob Ash, one of Ketchum's agents
had actually met me on trial near Elkton and
had positively won the wager. Now | do
hope, that if Mr.. Ash had the trial by himself
and obtained the 500, he will certainly be
the gentleman to return it, as | was ignorant
of the loss, and do not want any advantage
taken of me in the dark. If any Of the
