of Judge North against VIM. NJ. Stewart,
for libel, has been Withdrawn from Court,

little enterprise which we had On foot,

whole evidence for publication in the

tallest kind Of big Timber and i'll

(S2OO.0 OO) for defamation of character"
he has shown more sold sense than we
ever gave him credit for. 1t was lucky
for him that he did not fue us, for we
would not have agreed to such a private
white-waShing.
