This letter was written to me as if you
were trying to get the money to settle with
me on my mortgage. The above letters
and kilograms ought to satisfy any person
that you did not attend to your business;
in fact, You never but once came near your
stands between the periods when I took
the mortgage and when the mortgage was
paid off, except on several occasions when
at midnight you took an expert to secretly
examine the books. You found everything
correct, but did not know until later that
you had made any examination.
Your attacks of the last four years upon
me have been malicious ones. have kept
quiet simply because l did not desire to
enter into law suit, and considered that
man of yOur age would in time refrain from
such acts. Time did not change you, but
instead, you became more and more veno-
nous, going so far as to state in your own
handwriting to the EUening Jowaal, frat,
that II had asked you for loaf of bread.
Second, that had stolen Sc, 900 from you.
Third, that used to sleep in q stable.
Fourth. that you had paid for my bridal
trip. Fifth, that you took me for charity
sake and paid me $40 per week. Sixth,
that you paid the wages of servant to
wait upon myself and family. Seventh.

answer, you know they are false. You

If any had been given--and had lent
you money to tide over your diff
