It should have been, rs your compositor has
made cad nonsense Of some Of It's paragraphs.
For instance "Which for causes" for which

kind testimonial gwen me by my friends IN
Memphis, was published.> Ny friend who
gaye the copy, ullstook MY wish. I did rot
think 1t necessary to give any public Vouchers
for my responsibility, for ths reason that the
facts stated were notorious and easily yeri-
fed by inquiry. There are hundreds
Of respectable persons in Memph1s, st:
Louis md Chicago, who know the things Of
which I write. ! have already mentioned
Medical Inspector Col. Allen, and the officers
Of tie Western Sanitary Commission These
are Tcll known persons and easily found. /
knoE not how far Judge Skinner Ut your city
il informed upon the eubjec: but venture to
say that he can give sone information, or at
least can tell where to look Tor it. refer also
to Mrs. Liyermorc, whom all know, and who
may always be found where the duties Of hu.
mai,ity are most pressing. Also to Mrs. Bick-
erdike. Of like honorable fame. and now, I
think, in Gayoso Hospital in Memphis. e..

but it is unnecessary, Whoever viii under.
