Daily Republican., 1889-08-17

In your paper Of Monday last, the l2 h,
| ADD especially in the Every Evening Of
the same date, appeared paragraphs lnju-
rious to the character of our son, William
B. Jackson. They were I'LL of misrepre-
sentations and Measurements calculated
to produce an utterly wrong impression
OF bis case. presume they all originated
from the Vaccinations OF clique OF his
enemies in Hockessin, headed by A. Il.
Williamson, no has been at enmity with
him for years, and by petty officer who
bad been bafiled In his cooperative Ell
forte; assisted, perhaps, by notorious
brother connected With the Z, z office.
Please request his friends and geier-
Gus public to withhold their judgment
until they learn the whole truth. William
B. jackson has done nothing criminal or
even dishonorable in the matter, as a full
examination would show. He is not the
fret man in the world who has allowed
himself to be weakly deceived by the
wiles Of an adventurous woman; and It Is
both ungenerous and upjuet that he
should be bounded down for his efforts
to avoid her whose peculiar character
and habits seems to have rendered II I'm
possible for decent moral man 10 live
with her.
1t is impossible to present matters so
as to be fully understood without stating
facts unfit to be made public; but few
pointers may be given that will enable
intelligent persons to form an idea OF
what the truth is.
have before me one Of her advertise
ments for q man discovered since her
marriage with our sony In "cupid's
colu'hn" OF the Heart and Hand. a mat
rimonial paper published In Chicago, of
March, 1885.
about january, 1888, her relations
were written to 10 Maine that her actions
were such that something would have
to be done, and entresting them to come
on here and help make an adjustment.
They did not come themselves, but sent
an agent authorized to act for them, who
took her to Maine with him after a pre-
liminary agreement was signed, In
which Vim. b. jackson agreed to cons mt
TO her going aud to furnish her with
means to go with provided he be re-
leased from her maintenance during her
absence. This agreement was sigued by
both parties aud guaranteed thus;
"And / guarantee that the agreement
herein above proposed shall be carried
out by her rela ions"
[Signed JOSEPH w. Brown.
William Is. Jackson gave her when she
left more THAI cash sufficient to take her
to Maine, and withheld not the amount
of "a shoe lAtcLel" OF the very small
amount Of goods she brought with her,
all Of VIII Gu she took away. Aud he,
moreover, gratutously sent her $50 q
short time alter out OF the proceeds OF a
lot sold, the deed for which she signed
before leaving.
