The Simple Truth About the Deal with
Fairbrother and jenkins.

The Simple Truth About the Deal with
Fairbrother and jenkins.
We have been informed that reputable
people in Durham have stated that it
was their inference that when Fair
brother sold THE GLOBE newspaper he
not only sold his newspaper property,
but that the consideration was also for
his everlasting silence. in other words,
that he peddled and then bartered to
the men who bought THE GLOBE, his
independence and his freedom.
We want to say that the lie which has
gained such currency is unqualifedly
and absolutely false.
The plain truth of the matter is that
in the first papers proposed for US to
sign, mir. F. L. Fuller, attorney for Mr.
Jenkins, presented a document in which
these words appeared:
land we hereby covenant
and agree with said John Wilber Jenkins
and his assigns, that for period of ten
years from and after January /, 1894, we
will not engage in the business of pub
fishing or in any way conducting news
paper, or newspaper business in said
town of Durham, n. c., without their
consent
Those who have had the inference in
timated that Fairbrother had sold his
freedom, doubtless have perused the
first document presented and continue
to talk through their hats.
but to satisfy all the queer and Curl
Gus and for the general information of
the public we below append true copy
of the papers which really passed, a
copy Of which we have, and the copy is
witnessed by Mr.. F. L. Fuller, and this is

AL FAIRBROTHER, SEAL
NJ. II. FAIRBRoTHER, seal.

Witness-F. L. FULLER
In this great excitement seeming to
prevail, that Fairbrother had sold his
freedom, we only desire to state that the
original paper, and Mr.. Fuller admitted
that in that particular sentence the
meaning of the word employed would
have caused Us to forever hold our peace,
so far as any legal or moral obligations
were concerned.
Later on we will have something 10
say Of what we believe to have been a
most villainous conspiracy.
In the meantime and until Mr.. Jen-
kins, who was most certainly an limo
cent purchaser, gets his sails under way
we hold our peace, but, thank God, for
the agreement which We detected and
demanded TO be amended, no longer.

feet knowledge Of the river. He
also told him, If he was permitted,
he would 60 and bring . correct
map Of the river. Butler consented
and father went to . friend who was
. sail maker and craftsman, and OBJ
tanned perfect map, which he had
made by friend beforehand, sus-
pecting it would be of service to
him. Hs had q guard with him all
the while. When he presented the
map to Judge Butler he scanned it
closely, and then called up some Of
the sailors Of the AZ, and asked
them II that looked like the mouth
Of the Tchefuncta river. One of
them said distinctly: ;'Yes, sir /;
I have been mp and dowa the river

abusive slurs and threats, father
was discharged, but before that
Butler said he had . notion to send
him to Tortugss. Father told him
he "'c0uld send him to the hinges

him it was his indifference that

You giving . particle to one Of your
