The same fact may remove any disagreeable surprise which you may experience on again finding your name coupled with mine, in any other way than in an advertisement, accurately describing my person, and offering a large sum for my arrest.
In thus dragging you again before the public, I am aware that I shall subject myself to no inconsiderable amount of censure.

I shall probably be charged with an unwarrantable, if not a wanton and reckless disregard of the rights and properties of private life.

There are those north as well as south who entertain a much higher respect for rights which are merely conventional, than they do for rights which are personal and essential.

Not a few there are in our country, who, while they have no scruples against robbing the laborer of the hard earned results of his patient industry, will be shocked by the extremely indelicate manner of bringing your name before the public.

Believing this to be the case, and wishing to meet every reasonable or plausible objection to my conduct, I will frankly state the ground upon which I justfy( sic) myself in this instance, as well as on former occasions when I have thought proper to mention your name in public.
