against him by Senator John Sherman in
his second volume OF Senator Shcrman's
Recollections."
The general quotes the references made
to him on pages 1929 and 1882 OF the
book. Gen Alger says he should not In
tTude this matter at all upon the public
''were it not for the fact that the Senator
has gone out OF his way. il seems To me,
to insult my friends as well as N myseH,
this being. as far as ] know, the first time
he tad put himself on record over his
own name in the matter. and what he
writes would be less objectionable were
it not that the second word in the firth
paragraph is written in the present tense,
showing the present state OF his mind upon
the subject"
Gen. Alger says in conclusion: 81 will
only add that If Senator Sherman is will
ing to leave a record made up largely OF
adverse criticisms OF the public men OF
his day, many OF whom have passed from
earth. he is welcome to the task. l am
sure he stands alone among our public men
who would be willing by his own act to
blight the honorable record OF the living
