Above Joseph says he was msinformed.
How could he be misinformed when he
never asked to be iptormcdi However
WAS informed here last Sunday that he
said he had demanded the authors name
of me, and that had refused to give 1t to
him. Therefore, on Monday morning |
went TO him (Jos-ph) and asked him If he
had reported that he had made such de-
mand of me. lie replied that he had not.
l then, at his request, told him that had
written the article in question, and had
ouoted his remark-"What are you id
Republicans going to do for music i'-on
the authority of NJ. =. Jack. who assured
me that he had heard him make use of the
language above quoted. Joseph then said
las he had stated in his reply when he
said il was lie without the least founda-
tom that it was not said in that way, and
modified the epithet by saying he used the
word blamed Republicans, and not id
Republicans, as published. lie also said
he meant no oiTense whatever and that he
had not changed his politics-only his
music. Yours &c, +. l.. ilsEY.
