Not be ing in the habit of denying gentle men of my family To ftnall a fnvor as a horfe to ride a couple of miles, I granted his requeft, on his pro m firg on his honor to return him the next morning. The captain infmuares ‘in his piece that I would never be able to pay him for his cotton. Strange indeed, when he is already paid before he borrowed my horfe. He further fays, that he believed 1 intended to waylay him and take his life privately. No wonder his timorous imagination teems with phantoms and errarts numberiefs terrors to itfelf. His guilty confcience no doubt inform ed him that ht deferved to die, as all other plunderers of horfes ought. Njo doubt but the gentleman feels, the goads and flings of confcious guilt pierce through his bafe bofem.
