enAprsa M


The 1dgeriser and Capt. Bagby olias
Day, reply to the facts published in Out
columns, simply by stating that they are
"wilful lies;" and the editor says, Bagby
alias Day has sworn that they are false
We reply.
1st. Bagby's friends all admit that he
changed bis name, when he left New
York. from Day" to "Bagby," There
is no denial Of this fact, on oath or 9th
erwise. II Bagby dare go before a jus
tice or Notary and swear to the contrary
we will pledge ourselves to convict him Of
Perjury and send him to the Constitution, -
prescribed by statute for that crime.
cd. The Adueyfiser states that the
"Clique" stole Days answer, to Loomis
& Ashly, of the 6les. This 10 simply a
LIE. The answer is on fle in the Clerk s
Office and has been ever since ii was fled
there; and here it is; lie makes six an
swers as follows:
First, Pleads 'the general issue mi
debit" or Il owe nothing"--this he ex-
plains in the following answer to-wit:
Second, "And the defendant, for fur
/ ther answer, says that the plaintiffs ought
not to have ond maintain the said action
against him, because he says that the said
.upposed cause did hot any at time,
WITHIN SIX YEARS, accrue to said
plaintfIs."
Third, "Ought not to have and main
ain suit. because the plaintiffs did not
,egin the suit within SIX YEARS. after
| ne defendant removed to and settled il
Ohio"
Fourth, "Furthor says, that the defen-
dant has not, WITHIN SIX YEARS. OF
at any tins af,er the 9th day Of January
GAG, ill the commencement Of the suit,
removed out Of the State Of Ohio"
FSfM. Denies that his place Of resi-
lence was unknown to the plaintiffs.
SirM, Aiilrms that his place OF resi-
lence was known to them.
Now every single one of these answers
refers to the "kaap>'s ae;," Of the "Stat-
ute of Limitations" "Six years" ''six
years." ''six years" he reitorates to the
men whom he swindled. Loomis Il Ash.
y say, the Statute Of Limitations cannot
protect him, because he fed to parts un-
known and changed his name, and they
had no means Of knowing his where's
bouts. To this Bagby simply replies.
that he believes they did know where h.
was, the afIidayits Of his own relatives to
the contrary Notwithstanding.
The AdOertissr says, this contemplate
and cowardly swindle Of Ira B. Days
"is only a matter Of dollars and cents,
about which nobody has any interest,
but the parties themselves. If instead
of swindhng the New Workers out OF
their wool and hides, ho had stolen Their
horses, Re might reply to an inquisitive
public. that it was "aoue Of theiI busi-
ness, rs well as in this case.
IL will be observed that Day does not
deny any Of the facts proven by indisputa-
bic afiidavits ag inst him. He does not,
nor do his friends, deny that he secretly
left New York. changed his name, came
to Ohio and kept this all a secret till it was
exposed by near relative of his, whom
he had basely swindled.
Take this mans history. The first
thing, after his change Of name aud es,
cape from his native State, he marries a
young lady and brings suit against his
mother-iu-law. Tor his wiGe's property
breaks up the peace Of family-grasps q
large part of their properly and after al
this, has the brazeu impudenee to ask the
honest men Of Senca County to elect him
Probate Judge, to settle up their estates
and handle their money when thew are
dead. There never was a runaway with an
alias to his name. who wss not an unmiI-
igated villain; which if you doubt, see the
Pirates own Book" or the "Uhronioles
Of State Prisons"
