remember he spoke Of with anything but kindness.
This considerably embarrassed me. could not re-
pei the cvlities he loaded with, unless determined
to get all prophecies at Defiance and, on the other
hand there were public grounds which prompted me
to avoid having any connection with him. That ne
detected this feeling which took greater pains to
conceal than strictly requisite to keep within the
bounds of good breeding, have every reason to sup
pose for he showed himself very anxous TO iinoress
me with the idea that he had no other ambition than
to serve the Republics that he was heartily devoted
IN the cause of the people; and that on social ques
