My neighbours and fellow citizens in this vicinity manifested in a manner most gratifying to me, their indignation at a persecution, of which I was temporarily the victim. For their kindness then 1 thank them. It proved to me that whatever injustice may be done tiy the few the many will oppose and correct it. The reinstatement. At the next meeting of th Court I was restored at once and without hesitation. The sensitiveness of tlie Presiding Judge would not allow him to assent, although the injustice ofthe sentence was made glaringly manifest. At this time the petiliou published in the Handbill was handed in by O. II. Smith as my counsel. You mayjudge of (he desperation of my enemies by the meanness of theirsubterfuges; the original of that petition is in the Clerk's Ojice in Mr. Smith's hand writing and the paragraph showing it to be his and to which his name is signed was docked from the published petition.
