Khan of Warrington, wish to in
form the public through this me
dium that we have never as yet
issued any, warning to anyone in
any way. We feel perfectly sure
that when such warning is direct.
ed by US that no trouble will be
encountered in determining who
the author and sender Of the
warning might be.
We send no letter or warning
only to those who are guilty OF
some crime or who by their very
actions and conduct are a men
ace to the community. We also
feel that through this medium we
may save some married men and
women a little inconvenience
when we state that there are a
few married men and women who
had better stay a little closer to
their Preside otherwise a warn
ing might be necessary. AS to this
we know whereof we speak.
Trusting we have made our
attitude clear as to warnings
