AN INJURED HUdBAND.
October 29, iBcB
- Friscol.
1 leave through your paper to in
form the citizens of this county, and the pub
lic at large, that the information given to
the Grand Jury of the Jail’s being “,conver
tej into a house of not, disorder and gam
bling,” is utterly untrue.
On the aoth iim, there were a few gen
tlemen of the Jury and witnclfas who were
attending court, who hoarded with nu, and
v ’tio on that evening indited on playing a
game of widft oi something of that kind For
arrnfement, and for foraething to drink;
and 1 informed them that I had no ohjeffi.
on, and they played for fame time—and tins
V'as the only time thee was cut any card
11rying within the Jail walls by ray appro
bation, and this was done without “ riot
or noise,” -
There were some time ago, (wo persons
confined in Jail by the City Couocif for tines
imposed by the n, and they at times as 1 un
ocrlfoodamufed themfclves at playing cards
in the room they were confined in, '• it th :v
never had any disputing or rioting that 1 I
knew of todiftarh either roc or my family, j
or any other petfohs, except on on; night t
when I \yps frojtj home, when I was told j
the prisoners had been noisy in their rooms,
but Inch rudeness will at times happen in a
ny Jail with persons confined for it
is not always found, that potions q|Pfined in
J‘id, are uniformly orderly in their con
duct. The amufemenrs of the prisoners in
their own room, I did not-interfere with,
•pid while they behaved orderly, 1 did not
feci warranted in interfering therewith—a
deport had been circulated that these persons |
had been fuff:red by me to go at large, j
ut the story was altogether faife, and was
provsd to heft, bytwoaftifl avits taken be- (
•ore John D’Antignac, Esq. and the peifons
were never ftffcred to go at large till dif
v. arged by the City Council tbemfclvcs on
Jhczjdof Aoguff iaft—This story there,
ore like the information on. which the pre
-ntment was founded, I confider as inten
* ,n juftly to do me an injury. And I
11 v any person except in the finglc irflar.ee
utqrucned* to fay that there was c
v;r an- carLpl, lying h mv h>if;, or that
There h is ever been any in th;sbtors ro '>ll* \
or in any other p*rt of toe Jail, fines thj \

I can he fubilaridated by the affidavit cf one
of the G-and Jury, who {warded with nte
during court, and of several others who
a'fo bearded with me at the fame time. I
believe from the information I have re.
ccived, that the Jail has never been kjpt
in a more orderly manner, than it has been
uiuhc ray diteSioa.
As to living in adultry with the darling
P’ggy I*ctdue, thacg I will not pretend to
Ivtve been more fiec from faults in former

friends and t'eUsw-Ciiizens.
I have i<xn in the Chronicle of the fifteenth
inftint, a piece with the ftfnattne of Willi
•mifon NOOl weed 10 it in which he ctdeav
! ers if pi fiille to ♦'in ft his bag of venom on my
i character. And as the unfitted and immac
ulate gentleman ius fimifhcd ir.?'thai« I
think it my duty to use them. He lass that
he is forty that lie has to trouble ikc'pulv'
with reading hisanfwer which I think be has
a very good right to be when he knows hiro
fclf every word » fit ts » palpable falfchood
and he also fays that hc'ftudi fay but little of
my unmanly conduit at the present but w»U
defer it until Tome future cccaficn at I feel
for his relations, for mv part 1 leei for the
gentleman and think if Ik* has any feeling
that he list! better feel for himfclf and hia
bale cui-duct, *g iin he fays that if my neigh*
bors knew of tnv attrcdotis ccridnff in mjr
fiim.ly, they weuld not allow me to keep
their company, for my part, I think it
would hsvc been more pnidt-nc of the gentle
man to have given fotncpioofof fomeef th'ir
atrocious cpridurt than to have subjected
himfclf to toe censure of being thought a Iy
er by all my neighbors and friends, a* fume
of them do not iive mote than a quarto* of
a mile, whereas this gentleman lives at the
diibrnce ot ten miles and rut of the state and
never was very tntimate with me in his life.
He fays in some of the Gift pan of hisanfwcr
that my charaffcr ought to be pointed out
by thofo r. ho have the advantage of knowing
me, it is true that this grptlnns'i has h*d
the advantage of knowing me so tar as to jif
fume to himfcifihc liberty of adding fny name
wtrh ids in New. York, without my know
ledge or in order to ettahlifh his
credit to b*v goods. He farther fays as to
roy injuring hi i credit ft is a matter which:
gives him very little imcaiiods, if he has a
ny credit he very well knows that I did not
wjfo ro make it any less, yet Ido not with
him with all his mdicious fits to edablifh'
his chtracer wtih the ruins ct mv rcpu'.uion
and again he fays there is fo.ne danger in m/
obligation to him fora some of money which
it is ituc (hat he has rny note for some better
that two hundred dollars and fur which funi
he has detained in his pofll.fiion all my lail
year’s crop Os Cotton, which is very well
known to he near about eleven them (ami
weight in the feed, the danger that 1 (fund jn
is tins, I fuiipofc h: intends keeping my
crop ofeoft mto dtfeharge the debts of the
firm of Norwood, Hughes and Co. and then
to cor,e on me for the par merit of my note.
He also deter, that 1 ellimated in nay notifi
cation hat I had paid some of his dybts which
the public may very easily fee that thft Is a
I/C by applying to the advrrtifemem which
certifies that Ido not intend paying my in
future. He get* on in the Ctiochdiun ofhi*
chndcftine narration uflies to fsr that be has
given me white 1 deserved and is tesdy to
do it again, if the gentleman ftjbiild illume'
the confidence to try the cxpc.-tmr/tt, I am
