Jabez Bovven, Junr. Ex'r. Augusta, Feb. 25. My Good Ftllrw-Citizens , I WISH to inform you of a new thing, perhaps that you have never heard before, and perhaps to your a£ton ifhment.—That our priviledge of having a rryal by jury, is done away, by order of the Honorable Judge George Walton. — I will give a just and true llatementofa certain case, brought against me in the county of Oglethorpe, trved before Mitchell, and the jury found for the de fendent, the plantiff appealed, and when came to tryal before the Honorable Judge Walton, the firft of the witnesses being examined —the Judge gave his opinion against i»e, prohibiting mv tefti monies and writings, that I had to defend against the suit to go before the jury, and would not fiilFer that any sh mild go, but immediate ly got the foreman of the jury to sign the veriitft against me; the next day, a num ber of the jury told ne, that they thought 1 had given up the su it, that was the rea son that they laid nothing. In order to let the world judge if I was not treated with injustice. I will take the iiberty to make a just flatement from the com nencement of the case to the last On or about the beginning of Nova.nber 1794., a number of l*uers was-given in at the CuHorn Office in Savannah, to the’ agent for the supplying the United States Troops in the ftaie of Georgia, jimongft thole number, Col. feflee Sanders of Co lumbia County, gave in to my knowledge seven letters, all signed with different names, commencing proposals at five pence, and continued on one farthing more, until the highest was seven pence, the lowed was a Mr. Shaw, one of ritepro pofali of t!ie Col’s, the next at five pence farthing was a Mr. Owens, another of the Cols, proposals ; but the Col. finding that he was in a good way to make a good speck, he wrote to the agent, in the name of those two different names, that they could not take rhecontraft at their pro posals, for what cause I dont reco!!e<ft ; the next proposal was a certain Thomas Dawson, five pence half penny ; that was also another of the name that (aid Col. Sanders had made use of, the Coi. was obligedthen to ccnfine himfelf to that pro pofol, as there was one between that and five pence three farthings.— Then Ive ftart-' e l for Augusta, I travelled with him, and on our w iv l found out all this manoeuvre of the CoFs. and told the Col. that I would purchase the proposal of said Dawson, that if he would procure to me the right, and mike m? over the said right and title of t £|M yi. ‘vhat f • 44U .’■lv- j-jttyi*- ‘Per cent on all tiie a m-uht of the . Quarter Mafterand Hospital departments, daring the two years, the Col. repli- 1 that he cpuld not give me an an Twer ur, , ! .ve canid, to Augusta, as he was contir vied with Cot. H. Ham 'ton, but he ob : •* -ed, that he could make rnore out of tlm .5 he kne w very well, that h • m. I get four thoufan I dollars on advance root the agent of the contra.fi, and at that time, lie could make a large* f >eci in pure haling shares of the Yazoo and; but however he would inform me if he would tike my of fer, as soon as we arrived at Augusta ; on our arrival, he an I Hampton called on me and informed me, that they would take mv offer —we then dre v a covenant wherein they obligated the nfelves to pro :ure the contrast from Th >mas Dawßrc, and make' me over all the right of said Dawson ; and I obligated mv feff, that if they did make me over all fai l right, that I them two 4oer cent—>(vou will o'ofervr, that they had not the right in thrir power to make over to any bo iy, and they only had took liberty ff making use of faui Duvfon’s name)—Therefore said Diwfin, bv that, be w\s the irov ding that he had gone and girtn the fufti ient security to the agent, oi he plight do what he plea fed with his p/cfpofai, Tiafee wha‘4te could. The laid and Hampton, wh > have tm cred *n’o a covenant with me, con! Foot help the n felves, as they had no obligation fiufn said Dawson, to give li ern .>nv thing or to au thorize them to make over bis right. The next day, l darted to go to Sav.iiimh with Dawfon—before we got two miles‘from Augusta, he laid Dawson nfked not how much l was to give Sanders for the chance of th: contract, I was Surprised of ihtf quirf tion,and told said Dawson, that I was real ly furprited to find that he was the man whom said Sanders and Hampton eifgaged to procure ihe right, and that be did not know more of the bufiaefs theji tha>—the fiiid Dawson replied, that it was r new thing to him, an I that tber had fro: for him last uight and inform d iiign, thr t thev had an le use ofbis nan -, and that thev had obtained the contract 011 his prcpafil, and that he mild go to Savxfcnah to sign his proposal to said Phinizv, r.» thev had fold his chance to said Fiaiuirv. Pc.oi thev would give him fa'd Dawson part of the i chance.—Said D.urfoa faj sto laid I’hini zy, I with you would tell how much you promise to give them, I then told laid Daw lon, that I was to give them two per cent, providing they procured the right from him frid Dawson ; then laid Daw son said is that the case, I tell you what, I dont think that they can get any thing from you (fays he to me) without I choof'e, I replied to him (as my opinion) that cer tainly they could nor, without he said Dawson, had authorized them to make over said right, Dawson replied, no I nev er did, because I did not know what it was till you fold me. We kept on trav eling and arrived that night at Major William Skinners, there we talked over the matter again, before said Skinner, and at last agreed to take for his right three hundred dollars—l paid him one hundred down, and got pen and ink from said Skin ner, and took his receipt for the hundred dollars, on account of three hundred for his right of the contract, for supplying the troops in the state of Georgia, for the year 1795 ai, d *796, and that he would go on to Savannah, to reiinquilh his proposal to me; the next day we started for Savan nah, on our arrival, I prepared for him said Dawson a letter to give in to the a - to these wonrfs: — Savannah, November 1794. Major John Habcrfliam, S I R, I came forward to relinquilh mv proposal to Capt. Ferdinand Phiuizy, and he will give you the neceflarv securi ty as you may require.—Then told said Dawson, that he must give in that letter to the agent, he laid Dawson said he would. Then Dawson (farted from the lodgin? and went to Major Berrien, to deliver a letter he had from Sanders, (and perhaps Hampton) and aifo said Dawson, (hewed a letter thaf he h?rd r a gire rn to rhe agent, but after Major Berrien looked at the let ter, he told said Dawson, that he must make an alteration, by putting in these words, that he came forward at the request of Sanders and Hampton, who were to be concerned with him said Dawson to relinquifti the proposal to Capt. Phinizy. You will understand, that all this was after l had paid the one hundred dollars and took the receipt, as 1 observed before uentioned, which receipt I was ready to prove in court, and h*d already proved it at the tirft tryal, by John Mathews, Esq. The next day, I was called on at Major Berrien, to come and make the articles of agreement between,the United States and t-> •» .fjipur ' b ry to i..t. Uahvvi States, for ten thoafapo dollars,#which I went and accoinplifhed the business, Then the next day we dart ed for Augusta, on our arrival, said San ders and Hampton, demanded of me my bond for the two per cent beforemention ed, I refund to give them my bond by telling them that I did not think that they had complied to their part, and that I had got the contract from Thomas Daw fori myfelf. Thomas Dawson was then in Aogufta, they could certainly if they had or ever they have had any right, make it appear then by said Dawson ; I then ftart eij for home. Sometime after, said Daw son came to mv house with my obliga iion (hut he had from me for the two hundred dollars, being the bailance of his right in the contract ; 1 told laid Dawson, rhat I was ready if he would (lay all night, that tile next morning I would go to Vathington with him, to nave s new writing drawed with a receipt in full, ac cordingly he did, and the next N day we darted for Wafljington, and on our arrival 'here, I called on John Mathews, Esq. and hewed him the writing I had from Daw son, for the hundred dollars, that I had >aid on account of the three hundred, fnd that I wanted him to make a writing between me and Dawson, which he did, md said Dawson signed : We then de iroyed the former writing and kept the utter, which I have proved before the Su perior Court at the firft tryai, that the for mer writing was destroyed by John Tfi thews, Esq. but he could not recolleft the date—l was ready to prove at this lad try af, when it was executed, that was as be fore mentioned, at Major William Skin ners of Scriven County, in Nov. 1794, on our way to Savannah, but was deprived of having any defence, by the positive or der of fudge Walton, by faying, that it (hould not go to the jury, it appeared that the Judge made up his mind on the evi dances that was given in by Major John Berrien, our late Treasurer. The tefti monv of Major Berrien, amounted to this, be said that he had the tranfadtion of the business in Savannah, as the agent was in disposed, appointed to foperintend—he aifo said that Dawson gave in the letter as I have before mentioned, alio that Daw son as well as Sander; informed him, that I h;d bought the contrast from Sanders i and Hampton—also, he fays that! inform ed him so, and that Daw Ton appeared to be afraid that I wanted to take an advan tage of Sanders and Hampton—also San- • ders and Hampton produced the inter rogatory exhibited on Major John Haber fham, wherein he only mentioned, that he underliood either from me or from San ders, he did not know which of the two that I had purchased the contrail from —Sanders also certified the amount re ceived bv me, and certified that I was the contractor for 1795 and 1796. —But take notice, this was all herefay, after that I had purchased the contract mylelf fromThos. Dawson, and he was the proper person whom the contract was in his name, and he had not gitfen or authorized Jeflec San ders or Henry Hampton, to Id! his right to me or to any body elle, as they have never made it appear by any authority, that they had from said Dawson—-I was also ready to prove in court, that Dawson did declare before Capt. VVilliaiff and Col. John Cobb of Columbia county, that he said Dawson, had fold his chance to said Phinizy—this he declared immedi ately on his arrival from Savannah; also I was ready to prove the payment of the three hundred dollars, all this I was de prived by Judge Walton, and judgment was then next obtained a gain It me for six teen hundred and odd dollars, and in fa vor of Sanders and Hampton. I hope the world will do me jufiice to fay, if they think so, that I have not aCted so improper as to be treated in the manner that 1 have been, by our Honorable Judge George Walton. • FERDINAND PHINIZY. N. B.~ The foregoing frstement I have published, in compliance with a notice, I gave the Judge the day after the tryal, in a letter I sent him, in which I told him that the previledge I was deprived of in not Jetting my testimony and papers go to the Jury, had injured me very much, and that as it was an appeal I was without remedy, and that I thought I had been treated wrongfully and not agreeable to our con stitution, and that I did intend to publish the whole of my case. If the Jury had heard the evidences and then decided a gainst me, I would not have complained ; but to reful'e my evidences was what I think wrong. F. P. Oglethorpe County , March 23. ISOI.
