10 TIE Editor Of the Smyrna Times:
DEAR SIs-Permt me to correct an error
which appeared in your paper this week. Ia
your editorial you say that Whitelev w. Mer.
ideth was arrested because he refused 10 deliver
up the arms that the company held which he
was captain Of. Such la not the case. When
Capt MorehOuse called at his house in the
morning, he was absent, having gone TO neigh
bor's house, about one mile distant from his
house. Capt. Morebouse then proceeded to
Willow Grove, and after having placed a nor.
uon OF his company around the town. went
back TO Capt MerIdetb's (who had returned
home IN the absence of Capt. Morehouse and
taken his dinner) and arrested him, not because
he refused 10 give up the arms. but because the
arms could not be had that day, as they were
scattered nearly all over the west end of Dover
Hundred. with some five that were in the west
and Of Murderkill Hundred. The aboye know
to be the facts in the case, as | was authorized
to collect the arms. which | proceeded to do
the next day, assisted by neighbor, and the
guns were delivered 10 FELTON, Station on Sat.
Hrday morning, and we're forwarded the same
day to Salisbury. After they arrived ths,e
