DEAR SHINY attention has been
called 70 the latest Of the untTuthiui
statements concerning the contest over
wedding presents between my niece,
Mrs. NJ K Carpenter, and Joseph l.
Carpenter. Jr., administrator, in which
he denies the charge Of attempting TO
deprive her Of them.
| have heretofore taken no notice OF
these emanatIons, knowing full well
their origin aud having 10 desire to
carry on a controversy with one who has
served so long an apprenticeship at dis
tortiug the truth in attempting 70
manufacture public opinion. snail
now only say distinctly and emphaG'caliy
that he has sought to deprive her OF
most Of her wedding presents ana fha'
many of those seventy two" prese. ats
he so ,vaingloriously mentions rs
having given her, were wIesied from
him by process of law, of which the end
is not yet.
He has carefully avoided publicity
concerning his wholly unwarranted
appropriation of the widows life insur
ance which he had no more right to
meddle with than had n tramp of the
road and which he only has yet restored
in part after months Of litigation, the
balance being yet in bis hands notwith-
standing his assertion that it had beer
