Col. Stewart, in defense of Grissom,
the murderer, attacked the moral
standing and integrity of the people of
Houston and Harris county. He
claimed that out of the so, 600 people
in Harris county there were not twelve
fit to try criminal; and yet he lives
among them, and rears his children
there, and those people have delighted
to honor him. Col. Stewart should
find more exalted sphere for his puri-
ty. It is too grand for Houston-1t is
too exalted for Texas.
