I am still of the opinion that Col. Bridgers thinks an answer to the questions put to him about C W, Oldham's neglect, would, inform the public that there had- been neglect He hopes by not agitating this subject it will all soon pass over as still-born matter. I have received a great many complimentary letters for informing the public of this abuse of office Some of these letters have been from the most intelligent of North Carolina's sons, and from gentlemen filling the; most responsible positions in the state. I think a curse, sooner or later, will over take any man who thinks he is so high in life that public sentiment cannot reach him. : His summit has been well nigh, attained and his downfall is as certain as his position has been ridicu lous. v-.' :-; .:i ' .

The latter has been so thoroughly drilled, that he would hard ly tell where the railroad shed was lo xated. I have given this information to you to use as ydti please, provided my name is withheld? It is my opinion that the railroad officials wish the public kept in the dark as to tne facts concerning this brutal treatment of a passenger over this road. ; , " Yours very truly, ; r.

Mr. Hill was a mechanic, and a spleo did one. As a poor man, he tried to L do his duty among his fcllow-citfaeas, aad by this he gained the respect of all vho BBcw him.
