which it 18, &sdrted that the commluni

the death ofCol. Shannoni. I an per
ICectly.- 8tliled(1 it such' an aVful
charge. I never had the slihtest
knowledge of Col. shamlton's Vnten

from those citizens in the connunity
f Camden who can believe pich an

which I ws born, antd have spent all

me'ofany such responsibility which

for I iever sispected such, vet will
iccomplish this result. As to '4my

your Correspondent in his article as it
would appear with the intent to give
currency to the impression that I am
11ecing from the expression ofindigna

to be done, I will say right here 11e
has don m0 a most grievious wrong,

wa'ty anid the hbucket startedl back for
thte bottom.-of the. shaft. Conntelly felt
it givinug way, andt( manged to 'catch

As soon as he foundt( th-.tt lie had a
