It's curious dokeyment and puzzles me-.
I'm disposed to consider him honest, but
was week showin he makes the
sez he's honest, wicfi is alluz agln mae,
for troo1y honest man kin alluz find
enough others to say it for him., I'd, he
tries to prove prov it, .wich is very bad, for
the honesty wich needs proviin IS Nv rath-r
er sealy order. he instances his spilinA
bis chances for the SENT last fall by wri--
tin that universal amnesty letter. Hor-
ris, in this matter is, I fear, playin ostrich.
He bez his he'd in the sand, and bein blind
