As everybody now knows,
Tom Devereux, at the bid
ding of Doekery, ban taken
it upon himself to abuse
Judge Fowle and other repu
table citizens of the State in
the most outrageous terms.
His chnrguis hive been shown
bo fiilso in every particular
but be has gone on every
where with his infamous
alaudera notwithstanding.
Jle has asserted over and
over again that .Judge Fowle
ni-tAd imnrouerlv and unpro-
foKfioually in connection with
the special tax bond issue.
Has he not known that he
was (stating what wan false?
We have hia own worda to
prove that he has.
In April, 18S0, he wrote,
a letter to the Hon. John
f;Vnv Hvnum. of Moigantou,
of which the following is n
cojiy :
"HALEian, N.C.April 18, '80
Dear Gray The last issuo
of the Blade contained a
communication from 'Thoin
U8, wliich Judge Fowle's
friends here thought should
be answered atouce. .Speak
fnr them I enclose a re
ply which we think should as
a matter of policy emanate
from the Piedmont region.
Please give this matter your
best attention. Who is
fW.mA? If he continues to
fling his slime, we will open
i: on him in a way not peas
ant to Jarvis. Things look
well here and herabouts.
wnfo to us.
Yours truly,
T. P. Pevkreux"
Now what was the reply
written hy Devereux and
"emanating from the Pied
mont region as a matter of
policy?" It was the follow
ing: . .

He must have had a similar
affair in Granville.
In regard to the Swepson
matter, things have come to
a pretty pass when an at
tempt is made to denounce
an attorney ior aiipe.un.
for a man charged with
crime. Judge Fowle was em
plovcd in this cause after the
death of Gov. Bragg, who
lie.d been Swenson's counsel
up to that time. Ht-, Judge
Fowle, has now as Ins asso
ciates in this case Juugej
Thomas Ituffin, Hon. A. S.
Merrimon, Hon. Jos. J. Da
