THE WILMINGTON REUNION
RREHZE

The Deerfeld Valley Times publishes
this week the following editorial, headed
1.-The Retraction," to which the editor of
the Phoenix will answer as he sees fit when
he returns:
"The editor of The Vermont Phoenix in
an article last week in reply to our editorial
headed An Explanation, asks for "a full
and complete retraction and apology for his
ungenerous and unprofessional allegations
and msinuations' Perhaps it is only right
to say in regard to the historical address
that if he did not use the exact words that
he would 20 and copy off what he wished
to and we could then have the manuscript,
that idea was carried, and we so under
stood it. Nothing was said of his sending
proof slips, and we did not know any were
to he sent until we received postal so stat
ing Tuesday night Had we known it sooner
different arrangements would have been
made. As to Mrs. Forbes's poem, we I'M
derstood that this was taken to Brattleboro
with the address, but Mr.. Russell now says
it has been in his Office all the time, The
chairman of the reunion invitation com
mittee now tells us as before, and tells ev-
eTvone that asks him, that one letter con
tanning 20 cents and others containing
smaller amounts, asking for copies OF the
Times containing report OF the reunion
proceedings, were passed over TO MT nus
sell We make this none of our business,
but state the fact that all may know our
statement was true. In regard to other
false rumors and reports we think no one
accuses us of circulating them. We Ger
tainly have tried to suppress them We
don't want trouble with any one, but we
think the people will uphold us in standing
up for the right, and though we have rested
quietly under false accusations in other
matters in the past it is no sign that we al
ways shall in the future. When we have
stated anything wrol g in the Times we
have been ready To correct it.
Our Wilmington correspondent has this
to say about the matter;
