lFrom the Ottowa County Union, ed inst.l
Our neighbors, the Ne,oS, and cotemporary
the Fremont Messenger, accuse us of lying in
the assertions we have made in relation to Mr..
Finefrock, and demand the proof
1t will be remembered that we accused Mr.
Finefrock of having stated that the Northern
soldiers were pack Of 6LOodhounds chasing do,cn
and numbering the people Of the South.'' We
made the charge knowing that we could sub
stantiate all we had said.
We have said more than the above, and intend
saving still more, and hold ourself ready to
prore lUhat zoe assert.
We now furnish the first edition of the called
for evidence, from Lieut. Thomas j. Wonnell
and Henry J. Miller, residents of Portage Tp.,
in this county, men of integrity, and whose rep
reservations are above suspiciOn-who stand
high in the estimation of the people and cannot
be impeached,
The following affidavit of Lieut.. Wonnell is
sworn TO before a Democratic Justice of the
Peace, who was a candidate for nomination be-
fore the Democratic convention of this county,
on the lst inst, so it cannot be disputed as fic-
titious:

gress in this Congressional District who en-
gagged in conversation IL the cabin of the said
