no uhfavorable criticism of his

great and good men, either on or

favorable impression upon all
classes and conditions of men than
did Judge Adams during the time
he held court here.
am writing this simply because
l think the people of the State
ought to know how Judge Adams
conducted himself while here, and
because think an innocent man
has been unjustly attacked.
