EDITOR HERALD: In an issue of
your paper, dated August 81, cores
pendent, who styled himseT"P W,
instead of sending something in the line
of news that people of our place would
wish to read, makes the longest item
in his article q SANDER upon some of
the likeiiest young people in our town.
This the persons concerned could easily
overlook had not p W had the inso-
lence TO denomnate himself friend or
at least as one among class of friends.
History is full OF the names of men
who were friends in the way his P. W.
proves himself one. Caesar had such
friend in Brutus, Charles Ii in Crom-
well; yet all that | might Gull from
these pages had more manliness. more
courage than this one ycleped P.W.
1heg, when the time came, could boldly
and publicly proclaim enmity; This de-
famer of characters as far above his as
the blue sky is above the earth, had not
the courage even to sign his name to
the manuscript which contained the
slanderous item; but apparently taking
advantage Of circumstances, trusted to
the oversight of employees to obtain a
space for his mutterings, then after
ward keeping as quiet as a woodchuck
who has holed and pulled the hole IN
after him. We ask of you, PW. AN
explanation. and defy you 10 prove
anything Except the singing, to which
we plead guilty,) contained in the arti-
Gle mentioned.
