NJ Fleming. of Knoxville. Tenn. In the beginning he
asserts that Colonel Fleming is not over seventy as

he challenged the latter for harshly crticiSng
school history of Tennessee written by the Congress
man. These criticisms. Mr.. Phelan says. were viru
lent and ong-cOntinucd. Finally, Colonel Fleming
having alleged that Phean's book seemed designed 10
shut out possible competition, Phean suggested that
Fleming was the competitor alluded TO. This accuse
ton Phelan repeated in a letter 10 Memphis paper

and earnest apology TO Flcmne's paper. lie also
wrote an explicit apology TO the Memphis paper. April
