fraud under oath, the public will nat

of our assets. One ] oseph w. Smith,

in the Court. l herewith enclose the

DEAR SIR: We regret the necessity
that you think seems to exist for your
noticing. publicly, the unWarranted
proceedings on 4he part of one of your
creditors in the District Court of this
State; but as the very fact that such
proceedings have been commenced,
may create uneasiness on the part Of
friends not intimately acquainted with
your financial position and business
reputation, we feel it due to you to
state, that during the last ffteenyears,
In which we believe your financial af-
fairs were negotiated almost wholly
through this Institution, our business
relations have been of the most grati-
flying character, and we have had
every reason to be satisfied with the
promptness and strict business integ-
rity with which your obligations were
aud are from time to time met
We believe that we are Intimately
acquainted with your resources, and
have no hesitation in saying that we
regard your financial position as ex-
tremely secure. and it will afford us
pleasure to extend to sou in future all
the.business accommodations that we
have heretofore rendered.
Should a more formal statement
from us be desirable, we will say that
our Board of Directors will doubtless
add their endorsement in confirmas
ton of which we have cheerfully
written. Yours truly,
