Mr. Editor,
In your last issue of tho REPORTER 1
notice an article from Mr. W. W. King,
which requires and. answer from inc.
Mr. King >ays I aui an embryo politi
cian aud political aspirant for the Leg
islature. 1 aui not an aspirant for the
Legislature; have never asked any man
to aid me to get the nomination, and be
fore this communication is published nol
only Mr. King but tho public will know
that my name will not he before the
convention. 1 admit that lam an em
bryo politician aud HI my futurs political
training, if I should learn to be as eor
lupt as Mr. King I pray God for some
body to tako me ofl' in iny embryonic
state. Mr. King also says he came to
Walnut Cove to see Mr. Taylor on bus
iness; if so, why did be not go to Mr.
Taylor's icsidcncc instead of coming di
rect lo Walnut Cove. Tor be well knows
that Mr. Taylor lives four miles north of
Walnut Cove, between this place and
Danbury; aud why did lie come to Wal
nut Cove "armed to the tooth" with a
hickory stick in his hand and a pistol in
his hip pocket; and why did bemadeso
uiauy threats against the author of the
piece signtd " Democrat The fact is,
1 felt that if I concealed the name of
the HUtnoi of Ihj piece after Mr. King's
throats here on that day that ho would
think I was afraid to assume the author
ship of it, and I did it in order that he
might bo ablo to have his satisfaction in
the manner he desired. Mr. Kiug says
he learned lata in the evening thnt I was
tho author 'he fact is I tidd Mr. King
to his face I was the author.
Rut, Mr. Editor, 1 should uot com
plain of auy of those misrepresentations
uor upon any attack Mr King has made
on me political, but Mr King says,
"The very day 1 was at Walnut Cove I
gave Shop what I thought to be good
advice, to £ivo bis time and attention to
his fiuuucial affairs, and get out of debt,
1 then and now have claims to flic v
ineuntof about five hund ed dollars a
guiust Aim, and if lie would give tuuc
and attoniion tc hie creditors instead of
office seeker", ho would receive the
plaudits of all honest men, eta "
'I he facts are these; at tho time of ilic
fire a I Walnut Cave by which the firm
of Wilder A Adams had the mUfortune
to be burned out, the firm owed debts
for the purchase of goods, and upon the
advice of friends and counsel they made
su assignment for the benefit of their
creditors, making Mr. Staok trustee in
the assignment, we made a full and hon
est aurrender of all the assetts of Ibe
firm, and 1 relinquished tho homestead
that the law gave me This is no secret
and the records in tho register's office
will boar mc cut in what I say. If tbo
property is judiciously baudled it will
pay every cent the firm owes, and 1 hope
have gome lell. I do oue ecut individu
ally to any man Now for Mr King
knowing these facts to be tiue as he
docs, to publish what lie did and to mis
represent the fuels as llicy are, is mean,
low and contcuiptiblo and no gentleman
would be guilty of such an act. If 1
desired to attack Mr. Kin»'s private
character I could show it to be so black
that the angels in Hades would scorn to
fellowship liui, but 1 am abovo this.
Suob attacks as be has made upon mc
recoils as a boomerang on the man who
utters them. Now as to tho advice ho
claims to have given mc is another per
version of the facta and all I have to say
abodt it ia that Mr. King simply lies.'
Now, Mr. Editor, I know my roaiarks
aie barsb, they are severe, they are such
no gentleman deservesaud no gentleman
will wear, and I bupe he has the man
hood, if he daaires lo reaont what I have
aaid, to do it otherwise than to attack
mc in a newspaper oomicunbation.
