and at last man is free"
Brother. Jacob and Chisley were the
best boys ever associated or worked
with and their shop mates loved them
They were liberal and believed In ths
brotherhood OF man. and sc respect
them.
In concluding permit me to say Mr.
Jacob and Chisley believe IN the Dec
laration of Independence. The right OF
free press, free speech and free religion.
In my opinion they are true Americans
and will know how to tight to preserve
the above rights for posterity.
Hoping they are well and happy,
remain.
Yours truly,
WILLIAM KELLY
