A Correction Anent the Jonathan
Hunt Case.

Special Correspondence.
Giles. Wayne Co., Nov. 27--Please
correct some errors made In the state
ment Of the Loa correspondent Of No
vember l6, wherein Jonathan Hunt
was accused of many things of which
he was not guilty. 1t Is stated that
he treated his family with cruelty,
when In fact he was kind and tender
husband and father to his large fam
lily; the very Idea that he bruised and
checked them Is proposterous. He was
anything but domneerlng; he was kind
and considerate always to those de-
pending on him, and as TO his neigh
bors living In mortal fear Of him 1t II
simply nonsense.
He is Just high tempered and will re-
sent imposition. | know him only as an
accommodating nelghbor with a heart
as big as wagon wheel who would
never turn his back to his neighbor
that was in want, A man who would
divide his last sack Of -four with poor
neighbor, whose berry and melon
patches were always open TO his
neighbors or anybody else who hap
pened to pass MS way. IN fact, ne was
generous 10 fault, and all his neigh
bors knows it.
And as to his being guilty
of incest that Is matter
Of opinion Many think he Is
and few think he Is not, while jury
Of eight men found him guilty on pure
~ circumstantial evidence as the
court records viii show.
1t Is q mistake that his only defense
was q denial Of guilt. His big family
OF children all declare that they never
saw anything improper between their
sister and father, and they declared
themselves to that effect, as many OF
them as appeared as witnesses in the
case, and the girl, Nancy, herself de-
clares that she never had any improp-
err relations with her father. but that
she was assaulted while under the in
fuence Of drugs and therefore cannot
say who is the father Of her child.
