 Dr. Goree, dear friend:-I am about to do what l well know you will condemn-bpt what is the use l 10 pro!ong the sttuggle--in my crjp pied condition l am no longer able to work, and toscootinue to live l would become burden to my friends; this I could not endure; l 1 prefer to end all.
 It is not necessary for me to tell you l have been faithful. l have had terrible struggle here; in the first place there has not been crop made since Iicame. Then l got into the difficulty with Pen $ Stewart, and while I was in prison the store was guttee, people carried off near ly everything there was in it. That is the way things are done here, then l have paid out on my case more than five hundred dollars; the business is in debt, but there is enough to pay you; but you will have to watch these people, they are not like the people you are accus- toned to dealing with; theft here is not considered a crime.
 Now, dear friend, have done the best l could, am sorry to give you this trouble. Please ask your wife not to think hard of me and forgive me and sometimes think kindly of your old worn out friend.
 For the last time. ] want to re- pert. l did not seek the difficulty with Pen $ Stewart; l tried to avoid it but they wsre full of bad whisky anu refused to listen to req son, and in the fgbt that followed it was say or be slain.
