II the Editor Of The Chicago tribune:
SIN In Justice Of tho monlory of my lamontcd
father nlo late ra Couch), allow me to call your
attention 10 some orroneous atatemouts nlnde In
your valuable paper, under the nhove head, on
Feb. 2, 1874.
DR.. Dyer, Ii, tho first place, makes most won-
do1ful mistake by saying thRt Mr.. Couch ever
made dollar by shipping specie to the East {;
aud, if ho did do 1t, there Is no but DR.. Dyer
who will now como up aud say 30.
Theu, aB to Lake street being m underelopod

ground On Lake street east Of State street WAS n

word with auy ono; and, ii he made q trade, he
always remained firm to his word, whothor it
! waB for or against his own interest. Mr. Couch
