intolerable g~rievaBce. we had not here

tend to sustain such outrages upon the

men,s, however, compel US, 10 suspect at

openly sustained, their conduct is Tinbed
At. We are not posted as to the detailed
difficulties existing between our neigh

Company, which has resulted IN that

after some Of their citizens have divers

are not Of those who appear to think that
