rcprescnteth unto yor onery boddys. that
the sed Bill Bragedon Esq. did on or
about sum time jur;n the time last kon-
grus was settin, rite letter on the sub
ieck Nv tacks upon terbacker leaves
Yor opery boddys will recollect, that kun
siderin my infuents, and that the NANNY
facterers ar a rascally thlevIn set IN gener-
lv (the kummittee Nv terbackernlsses al
lowed they was, wud'nt put the little tacks
Nv 80 cts. pound on the leaf. but as they
short, stuck it on to the terbackernisses.
Well now, yor petishuner, Bill Bragg
don Esur. as a four sed, is very sorry IN
dedc, that be rit that sed letter, thereby
changin yor onery minds IN the matter.
Yor scd Bill Rragedon Esqr. as four
sed. sents ritin the sed letter has found out
that it is impossible to tacks mannyfatte--
ers in fact. They kackelate the tacks IN
price when they buy, and they kackelate the
tacks in price when they sell, SO they save 1t
on the b., yin and make it on the 'ellln but
neither tho projuicer nor the consumer can
see it: but it is in the Bill, like the Yam
kee captains suite of clothes.
Yor Bill Bragedon E,qr. afoursed, cum
silde RS this sistem as ownerus as betwene
the euvcrnment, the mannyfacterers and
US farmers and planters.
Yor petishuncr as afoursed, (Bill Brag-
edon Esqr) respectfully suggests to yor
onery boddys, that you take OFT all tackes
from the nanny facterers and put it on the
farmers and laborers plain, so that they
can see what they are duin. And here let
yor respectable peti.huncr, Bill Brasedon
| Esor. as afoursaid, ask wun respectable
question of yor onery boddys: Is it rite that
the por so,jiers who fort for their own sla-
very and the niggers. ampetated all over
and sum with holes in en- and scars on
EN-, to pay more tackses than them who
stade home and jest seq, SICK EN- like
men ftin bull-tarryers. TUX theer eeze and
made fortunes But it is fack, lamon-
tibbe fack
Yor onery boddys kno that aurrishin
agricultyer is the prosperity Nv guvern.
mcnt Theerfour, yor petlshunnr, Blil
Bragedon Esqr as afoursed, begs that you
no longer try to tacks any body you cant
reach, the nanny nyfactercrs and bonholders.
If We por labcrers is got to pay it. let US
have the credit Nv it, or we'll repoodyate
surtin. Yor petishuner, Bill Bragedon
Esor. as afoursaid. further respectfully
representeth unto yor onery boddys, that

forks. brix, stix and stones, cannons, how

Yor Bill Bragedon Esqr as four sed j,

Abeliukun as afoursaid, did on or about sum
time il. his life, promis that if emmy Nv the

the .ed government wud pay for en-
Well, yor onery boddys, he got kilt, as
afoursed, before he dun it, and yor pc
tishuncrs as afourscd think it wud be a
pity and shame to let this little stape
cling to his lamentibb!c memmery. 1or
Bill Bragcdon Esqr. feels surtin and shore
he vud Nv dun it, if he had kept his wurd
and promis, and hadn't got kilt a. afour-
fed.
Your sed Bill Bragedon Esqr. as afour-
ecd, further representeth unto yor onery

land, by copstichushunal kunvenshun
and surtin Archabil sturlin, did mansi
pate tho nggers theeruv, without kompen-
sashun, aginst tho peace, government, dig
nifty and onesty Nv the state, in such cases
made and peryidcd, aud shecrhy pruycd,
that the scd Archabil was very jenerus in
disposn Nv other pcplcs things. Under
the abuv afoursed suckumstanccs yor pc
tish uuer, BIZ Bragcdon Esqr. as afour
sed has 10 hcsitasbun in calm on yer one

pated by the abuv convenshun and the
