E SUFFRAGE Editor Rutland Herald :,
I exceedingly regret to see my name SC
prominently and frequently paraded in
your columns, for under any circumstance
such publicity and controversy is distaste-
fnl to me, but more especially SO at this
time, because neither the quotation from
the report of my lecture at Wells, which
was SO hastily and sharply criticised by
Equal Suffrage" or the sentence referred
to by mediator" reflect my real senti-
ments, but'constitute portion of the in.
accuracies of the report of my lecture,
which, as before..stated had .beenlcorrected
for your weekly edition, before the ILL
advised criticisms of Suffrage" appeared
in your columns. -. ,5 -.-s
Suffrage" is pleased to acknowledge
ms as a director of public sentiment"
If such be my position, I ought, and shall
endeavor to hold and advocate with true
courage, all right sentiments, and when I
am convinced that it will be for the
public good, and for the elevation of
woman, to give her the ballot, shall take
my position in the serried ranks of
woman's rights advocates, but until the
day of my political conversion dawns, I
claim the right to entertain and advocate
the opposite view.
This is my last reply to Suffrage" until

flames gained at the time of discovery,
that notwithstanding the exertions of the
fremen and citizens to subdue them, the
building and its contents were entirely
consumed The efforts of the fire depart

which it originated, and averted what

to cover the loss. Stone & Foster had a

which they have since added. Their in
surance was $4,000. Mr.. Watson's loss
