polite, so far as concerns the members Of
my profession; but the recent action of
your Exchange, and the general tone of
your letter are so characterized by a spirit
of fairness, l can not repress my regret that
any rupture has ever existed.
In this connection l desire to return

every brother master in tie port when l
