This Georgetown correspondent thinks be
has hit Us again and has done something smart.
He has not Ouly been smart enough 10 ignore
our challenge to come out in tue open ike a de
cent man, but he has hid behind the Levy
Court Proceedings" to hide his identity When
we looked over his letter we missed mis- abusive
words, but on Sunday when a neiRhbOr acct
dently found it in It's hiding place among the
Levy Court Proceedings our attention was
called to 1t. We openly defy this cowardy nom
script to sign his own name TO his writings, as he
has made US and our full name public He dare
not do so for he is only capable Of swapping and
snarling at US like q sneaking puppy behind the
BUSH and delights to stab brother eOrrespOn-
dent in the dark, and call us ugly names as any
bIsckguard can do. Is he silly enough TO think
that this is argument or fair discussion OF
public matters, or is 1t newsf
Now openly oefy this cOwardly correspon-
dent TO tel the public what We did while in
Georgetown that was not becoming to a gen.
tieman, on when and where we departed from
our line OF duty or privilege, and tell under
your own signature OF we will brand him as an
fmpOster and mischief maker aud a fit subject
for denunciatton by all self respecting readers
Of the Chronicle. His only excuse so far Is that
[ skipped about lively for a man Of my ad-
vaneed age. II We committed crime against
deeency. he should have been more decent by
having US brought to Justice and our habit Of
skipping around corrected If he Is not willing
TO fight Us fair, we do not see the consistency IN

Il can not be highly appreciated by the inteili-
gent re ,ders Of his paper II carried on In this
unmanly and cowardly way by mis- unreason
able GeorgetOWn correspondent. is he so hum
s,rv for a word from the county seat as to accept
such trash from so petty source, even from
one who has the brazen impotence as to deny
the statement OF that hOnored jurist when he
compliments his jurors as being one ofthe best
aud fairest in his opinion. This is getting
down very low adeed in a desperate effort TO
find argument as to the Morgan-Hitchens-
I,indsle episode. We will say, they are our citi-
gems and like men they are going along in the
even tenure Of their way, minding their own |
affairs and forgetting the past like christians.
Not like this meddlesOme sneak who is afraid
Of his name and is afraid to Identify himself,
but ouiy trying to stir up strife and continue
a aeht for a lost cause, when they have been
completely whipped and oowed to ft Of abu-
sive language.
