w. T. Treworgy Of Bucksport. has
sent second letter to the Bucksport
Herald on the Ware case, as follows:
ITO the statements made in q pre-
vious issue | want to add: NV char
acter has been DETAINED by someone
and that he may have a chance to
prove his statements or apologize let
me say that from the age of ! to u
years | lived in Ellsworth and worked
for hundreds of people with my father
in my younger days, doing odd jobs
ana from u to 20 years, worked at my
trade.
Then | moved to Surry and had a
little shop where | made tin-ware and
sheet-iron stoves and sold them
through the country by team. After
wards secured a place with Wood &
Bishop OF Bangor. and worked in many
dwellings in that city. Last. but not
least, Horace Buck came to Bangor
and made me an offer to come t.
Bucksport for one year, ana here | am.
Now in all these places | made
friends and did not suppose that | had
an enemy in the world.
Since coming to Bucksport / have
added to my business. taking up ana
beating carpets which has brought me
into nearly every house in town
where | am we'll known.
Nov test, Mr.. Character Defamer:

woman or child; show that Treworgy
ever took that which did not belong tC
him. although he had been in houses
filed with Valuabes. | always consid-
cred good name rather to be desired
| than great riches. loving favor rather
than silver or gold. | am not ashamed
to hang up my character for inspec-
tion beside that of my accusers.
Some snob has touched upon my in
debtedness Yes. | am in debt somt
and the unjust usage To which | have
been subjected. within the past year
has not made it less but l have only
to refer to my books to find 200 or more
in debt to me- which if paid would helI
me some. | doubt if there is anyone
trying harder to pay up than myself.
never refused to pay an honest debt
owed when | had the means. | never
failed in business to get clear of my
debts as others have done and as
might have done. but will never do. as
long as there is a shingle to pay with

that time | knew nothing about the
case whatever that is a lie second
only to that Of Joe Fogg. | never told

Il sec by the Commercial Of this
week that Mr.. Tracy says that there is
no mystery about the Ware case. 1t
seems to me with the ability professed
by those who have had this case in
hand that the mystery is why the per
petrators Of this most damnable crime
have not been brought to justice. Isn't
