thing concerning It.
As ! now recall. have not had the
pleasure Of meeting Mr.. Bacon. | am
positive that | had no conversation
with him or any other person, in
which ! stated tnat had shaken
hands with four thousand people as e
pledge of honor that they would op-
pose the ratification of the constitu.

thousand acres of land. nor have
three thousand acres OF land IN cul-
tivation that cannot rent at any
price. But | am the owner of some
land, and have some land that | can.
not rent at any price.
Prior to the completion of the con.
stitution, however, discussed the
matter with a number of persons, and
they had in these conversations ex.
pressed themselves as being opposed

strument has been made public. prac.
