To the Editor ofthe IVilmingtonian.


In your last Number, an additional lo7y
and scurrilous publication has appeared "a
gainst me. from the famous would-be Irus-
tees Of St. Peters Church, backed by the
certificate of Patrick Higgins, and the after
piece of the notorious Quack Doctor, OF or
ho8sun1 memory. That shameful production,
fraught with the most glaring falsehoods, is
degrading, and unworthy the character OF
any Trustees, and which, as a member,
much regret.


have turned those "Trustess" over to
the legal authority who have no doubt will
duly appreciate their wants, and do them
that justice their infamous deeds deserve.


My statement, by way of reply, in your
former paper, is substantially correct; and
have been, and am ready and willingt to settle
on Just and equitable terms with the church,
with any men selected who are not devoid Of
principle, but l never can condescend to
men so destitute of every principle that cha

subsist upon, and from motives of charity
gave him employ when not worth penny

Next. in order, would notice the knight
of the Bolus whose stupidity is only equalled
by his impudence in bringing into view the
name of my friend Of the city of Lancaster
whom he had induced to suppose that he
was man OF reputAtion," and had decoyed
to his residence; which, when by me dis

in the company of such a "rettile."

Peters Church" patrick" and his quan

ture occasion to notice their nefarious pro-
ductions.
