10 he Editor Of le Plain Dealer:
You published some time since an ar
ticlo from tho (knnsas) llorald of Free.
dom, charging upon my brother John
Brown, with Hbottng the death Of vii.
liam Doyle and others. You referred 10
this subject again in your pupor Of yes
t9rdAy,
This statement of tho Herald Of Free
dom is wholly false 80 far as concerns
my brother; and lis circulation through
your paper 10 an act Of injustice TO him,
which trust you would not willingly
commit.
have no doubt that timo will reotify
all false impressions Rs 10 my brothor's
conduct In Kansas, and have no wish TO
say anything, at present, by way ofchang-
ing public sentiment concerning Il. But
the circulation Of this statement of the
Herald unoontradictod, is calculated to
cmbitter the few remaining days my
brother has to live, aud il is for his sake
that | trouble you with the following
statement;
Ny brother at the Cine William DOYLE
and others were killed, was not present,
did not assent 10 the act, nor had any
knowledge OF IT, and was eighteen miles
distant at tho time of the occurrence.
My brother John and his two sons wore
living in the same neighborhood, and a
committee of five from the Border Ruff.
ian camp called upon him, and said that
they were instructed to warn him that Il
Free State men were found thore the
next Thursday night they would kill
every ono of them, and they could CON-
mRnd force enough TO carry the threat in
10 execution. My brother replied 10 them
that he would not be found there, ns be-
fore this, ho had made arrangements 20
be in another part OF tho Territory. Ii
was known to the Free State men ofthat
section that this threat 70 destroy them
had been made, and before Thursday
night came, Doyle and others were de-
stroyed--thoy being Of the number of
those who had threatened the destruction
OF the Free State settlers, Tho effect of
this was, the norder Rullians became ter
ror stricken and LEFT the Territory.
have this account Of this affair from
my brother and his two sonsi also from
a sister and brother-in-law, (now living
In Kansas who had personal knowledge
Of this transaction; and the statements
