that they had been on the verge OF n

tory and OF highly excited and intern

that We could take any good and SUM-
cient grounds for our action
now think 1t MAS a mistake to give
any reason at all. Judge Crump wrote
the letter, which met With the approval
OF his associates.

that we would consider the matter on

Lanier and Upshur were dissatisfied, l
thought 1t would be we'll to make the

Mr.. Fairfax objected saying that lie

legal advice as Judge Crump was out OF
town.
We desired TO act in the matter not
only justly and fairly. hut to place our
selves on the highest plane amongst gem
tlcmen and with this idea we advised
with Mr. Eppa Hunton, whose reputation
is as high as-any in the commonwealth
Nj Hunton advised us that 1t was a

the nature of such a communication and
