On my return and settling in the City of Uefiiize. I iieard with siiri)vise that lemaiks had ln'in made in i,oii(lon hy parties wh_o, had it not been for mc, would not at present oceiiiiy the j)ositic)i) they do. Mr. Adam.-, himself, lias made some assertions, which are entirely false, to my hrothcr in England, on the receipt of which 1 shall tMke other steps. Gentlemen, you perhaps would scarcely helieve that honest Kdwar.l crave my l)iother's reply to a certain di>untruished youn;; clerk to show armmd your city, which no gentleman, callin- himself such, would think of doing. His case \u\\>\ I.e had to resoi't to ro/iiml iiijinnirr to give it a fair ai)itearancc. I ))elieve I can say, without fear of contradiction, that during the six years I was in Mr. .\dams' (■mploy, tliat T was tho means of midving his business what it was, hut now sadly reversed. Mad it heen my own, T <()idd not have worked more faithful ; how well I have heen (laid for the same you shall see. When 1 purchased the .stock of Mr. James Oliver, he proposed K. give mc goods at rosf tnn/ i'hiir(fe.% wi'h .'^even and a. half per cent, added; hut I was to huy all my go..ds from him. I agreed to do so; at the same time I wi.shed to open a hank- ing account, lie said Xo. pay me all ; it will make n=y account look much larger, all for self Time pa,«.sed on ; one evening ho caHeil on nu', and, .'is lie expressed il. his husine.elf and Mi'. !•', Westlake's accommodation notes, hut which I call flying kites (for they were nothing el>e), hut he coolly charges me with some a- cash -April -J, Is.m, LM-J(., and March 4, ls.-,r,. f:>i:! Mts Hd-and only when the KUitoR was pointed out wa.- it reclilie.l So mu.h for your director l{. it. N. A., whose di.Moonts. hy hi- own words, //'///, liH) iniii-h — \\u\\ much you may giie , it was more than many fair traders could have. Again, Mr. .Vdams has hitlieilo had the name of lieiiig a great hnancier, second to none; the hiise disclosures of his directorship in the \v;iy of two and a lialf per cent, thirty . M. Kenzie; could any thing lie moie disgracehil for a man in sii'h a position. Poor -Nigger |{ra ; .\ugusi. fJ7; Sejitemher. tus |.-,s; ( Utoher. f4C. ; De.emher, f-JH ; March, \<)'k t4; ( >ctoher, £2; these" fa.;ts and' my a.count are with Mr. .J. Hale, ^^ho will >how them to any laie hut .Mr. .\dams. How he made his cash to halance 1 cannot say, as I never saw a cash-iiook in hi ■. oilice during the six ytars I was in his emiiloy. When .Mr. .{dams was in Detroit wanting me to make an assigniiieiit. which I would no! do, I a.-^ked him if he had not told his clerks to hei.d me all the hioken package^ of every kind - gentlemen, he was hone.-t for --/» hrntlh-U said he had; nor can he deny <'harging nu- forty -six gallons of syrup, when the harrel only contained Iweiily-thvee ; so I was t,. struggle again.-t all this, and make prolit. He never, during the five years, sent me one invoice of cost (cost i.rice was only given verl)al), iiml the only account I ever got was made up to tile end of June, l^^o.i. Here was his policy to i.revent me ha\ing any check ; iuid I now say th.it I will challenge him to show his invoices, and pn.ve that he lia< done as agreed, to give me goods at cost and charges, seven and a half per cent, a.hled. Let him accept the challenge. 1 have my hooks here which .vhall he forthcoming. If he kn^w he had acted honest, why does he not give me my account from June, ISoCV Xn /lohrxl merch.uit would refuse giviii"- a dehtor liis account. Perhai'.s he feels conscious of having ohtained po.sse.-sion of my store hy a hogus operation is the reason; hut he may rely that hefore he gets through, he may lind it wor.ee to my atlair.s. an.l from r London corresuondenfs letter, likel> llie Sheriff his. Slmuld it so happen he should lind it neces.snw for a change of air, et a ^iluMtlon here (his own words ag.iinst me), for the reason that I could not, in any justice to myself, my he shall not stoj) oi give him a good character. ^'ours, respeetfally.
