Sir:-In reply to yonr letter, i have to
observe that you must be perfectly c)ns-
cious that the difficulty in the way of my
engaging in chess matchtis one over
which I have no control. You we're dis
hs tinctly appraised in answer to the extraor-
dinary proposal of your friends. that
should leave my home. family, and avoca-;
tions, to proceed to New Orleans for the
purpose of playing chess with you, "that
long and arduous contest, even in Lon
don, would be an undertaking too formida-
, : BILE to embark in, without ample opportuni-
ty for the recovery of my old strength
in play, together with such arrangements
as would prevent the sacrifice of my pro-
:. .fessional engagements" Upon your un.
81 expected arrival here the same thing was
repeated to you. end my acceptance of
your challenge was entirely conditional on
my being able to gain time for prac-
:. tice.a si5g ase5 .7s
g The experience, however of some weeks
during which have labored increasingly,
to the serious injury of my health, shows
3 that not only is itimpracticable for me to
n save time for that purpose but that by no
means short of giving up great work
on which 1 am engaged. subjecting the
ed publishers to the loss of thousands, and
myself to an action for breach of contract

Four shots were exchanged, when MIR. Glenn

clsres that from all that was said. and ell
that occurred on that occasion, he thought ho
