Dear Sir,-The williamsburg CORE
spondent of the Dispatch made n mistake
when he wrote that | said .'the editors Of
the Inder- Appeal and Mail had personally
informed him that Major Daniel had ex-
pressed himself to them as being against
free schools" / did say this regarding
the editor OF the Mail, and in q converse
ton with him about three weeks since l
so understood him to state. II / misun-
derstood him shall be willing to do him
the justice OF saying so. He and l can
settle that. / did say in my speech that
John w. Daniel had expressed hostility to
the free-school system TO the editor Of the
Inder-Ap2eal, but you never informed
me so personally, for | never talked with
you on the subject. i used the name OF
your paper and Mail in iuxtaposition,
therefore the correspondent naturally in
Guided both. / assumed that Major Daniel
had used this language to you because the
Vir1inidn, paper published here in 1881,
asked you il Major Daniel had not on GER
tain occasion used certain language mimi
cal to the iree-school system Quoting it,,
and closed one OF its editorials on that
subject by saying, Z" III the editor OF the
Inder- Appeal fails or declines to answer
this question, the public will have the
right to assume that John w. Daniel did
use the language above mentioned" /
never saw any answer in your paper, con-
sequently i assumed las did others) in 1881,
and at Williamsburg the other day, that
Daniel had so expressed himself to you.
