in such a degree that II would horrify your being
IN such manner to cause the very liie.blood In
your veins to run cold and chill Such we're the
feelings Of the unworthy writer of these lines.
But, II you, or the author Of that publiestion-G
care not who he may be--can command, or claim
any positive or established power over his own
mind beyond that Of other subordinate beings Of
the human race, then there must be something
superhuman there, " really such an ahsufdity
were the case, thon they would have just right
TO chronicle events TO suit themselves, or a. they
desire 10 see them. But, such power is not given
to any human being Therefore they have no
authority to advise or direct In such a way, for
no man knowslh what day may bring forth.
We. as a family, feel that your remarks have
been unkind In the very extreme, and, % Il we're,
insult added to injury. But probably you acted
upon the impulse Of the moment. II 30, due al.
lowance will be made. We all make mistakes
sometimes but let that be as Il may, sincerely
