(lalloway (nezro.l said that Ihe whole
thing meant nothing else but repudiation.
Ttieie was a certain class of men on this
floor, ao much involved in debt, that they
hugtced repudiation in every tiling. The
gentleman Irom (luilford was continually
speaking what Guilford county would do.
He (tialloway ) did not think that Guilford
county represented the whole State, or that
