The following card will explain
itself:
Mr.. Editor;-1n your issue of the
18th of February, appears an item
charging my son, Joseph Sheline,
with abusing his mother, and Of
"wounding her in the hand with q
knife, and also, "that he fourished
an axe over her head and made other
dangerous demonstrations before his
anger was appeased." wish to say

therefore, 1 hope you will set him
right before the public by giving this
card publication in your paper.
