the grand jury found nothing
against him. The letter men

various questions in reference to
statements made in his affidavit,
among which were answers to the

Weber also said in conversation with
the witness that if he found he could

\ paragraph having been eXten-
sively published, stating that Rev. o.
c. Pope, formerly editor of the Baptist
Reflector, but now editor of the Tex as
Baptist Herald, had been arrested for
obstructing and interfering with the
mails, he makes a lengthy statement
of the case, which is published in the
Reflector. He says the whole matter
grew out of a difficulty between him
and one V. c. Hart, who had a
brother discharged from the Herald
printing Cfice by the business
manager, and Hart proceeded tc
circulate pamphlets and by othe>
means slander Elder POpe's character
A letter for a boy working in the
office was accidentally opened by Eli
der Pope In the hurry Of looking Ovel
the mail, but wss given TO the boy
with explanations. Hart got hold o
this. and it was through his iLtilence
and for this act, that Elder Pope wal
arrested. The case was promptly dis
missed, however, although Eide
Pope did not employ a lawyer nor in.
tr0duce witness.
We give this statement in justice t
"a brother editor, who is well know
throughout East Tennessee.
