These things I will do upon the conditions following 1. That the prosecutions, city and Slate, now pending on appeel or for trial against me and Dennis Carroll, my former barkeeper, be dismissed. 2. That no further prosecutions be commenced against me or Carroll growing out of my said business. '•'j. That I be allowed time and opportunity to disposeof my stock on hand at wholesale on the best terms I can obtain, although I would preter the good people of the city would buy it out for disposition to suit themselves. 1 submit these propositions to you, gentlemen, because of ray confidence iu your religious professions.
