SIN: A local In your Issue OF the 10th instant
seems To require q notice At my hands, because
IL contains q reference 10 tho Young Mems
Christian Association which has no foundation
In fact The article says that In the recent trial
OF James IAllston for highway robbery ccrain
attorneys were retained by the Y. NJ. Z. A.
This Is not true. Your local also says that
"Allston was convicted OF some crime few
pious friends" IL this IL true have no knowl-
edge OF It. Il Is true that some OF the young
men here tried to induce Allston to reform, but
In no way, shape or manner have they or the
Association had any connection with his trial on
either occasion. t1Eo. A. HALL.
