tions;" therefore, to confirm beyond
doubt the authenticity oftheletter, aud the
gennlb enesssot its sentih(ents, ia fenorter'0f

all tho possible facts In the matter. 'Accorh-
lngly he visited Clifton Springs, saw the
author Of the letter, and with tho follow
lug result:
DR.. Henry Foster, the gentleman In

termined to be his own executor; and, there
fore turned over this magnificent property
