ADDITIONAL UNPUBLISHED FACTS.
Though u was impossible to prove what had been

SCRAP.
We close this painful history with the single ex-
PLANTATION that our designation or Ru0n's first great
crime, elsewhere in this paper is TO be taken
literally and not excluding the probability OF
previous nllsdeeds. 1t is known, ana mas been
stated-oiten with incorrect detal-that Rullon was
punished III ST. John by two years. Imprisonment,
Tor stealing from his employer, before coming to
New York. This was ascertaned by clergyman
who went TO ST. John. Hence Rullon entered upon
bly, before he was twenty years OF age. He is now,
according TO his own account 6fty-one.
