Fountain Green, April 27, 1891. 1 Editor Register; Please allow space in your paper for a reply to your comment on my article in regard re-gard to the deceased Town incorpor-t incorpor-t on of Fountain Green. You assert That there is a "nigger in the woodpile." wood-pile." I fully agree with you, and have been tr ing for some time to learn who the nigger is. I sincerely hope that the nigger will be found and severely punished. I did not jay positively that Mr, Reid had neglected to perform a duty, and he may be innocent, but if he is not,he not he should be prosecuted. In last Saturday's ssue of the Stntinei Usays: "that Mr. Reid had never teen asked to record the Fountain Green Charter." 1 and othershave been anxious to learn wherein the fault lies that the town incorporation Vas not recorded. The President 'of the late town incorporation has been President of each board of officials from the beginning. The President has been asked to give an explanation through the Press, "but has neglected to , do so. I j could write more but do not believe it necessary, and hope to see a published pub-lished article from th president of Jhe deceased incorporation of Fountain Foun-tain Green. Yours Respectfully. Zoram Christensen; A Carpenter's Son. About this matter there is a fault somswhere.and one that is very censurable cen-surable and that has caused the people of Fountain Green a great deal of annoyance and shame , as her peaceable, lawabiding citizens )iave not been able to control the affairs of the town as they could had i been incorporated properly. Besides Be-sides this some of her well meaning, and prominent citizens have a law suit for damages for false imprisonment imprison-ment on their hands that may be disasterous to them; and why, be J cause the failure of some ont to doj heir dvity, willfully or other-, wise. We hope to be able to expe-se the entire business, and lay the blame, yhere It rightfully belongs. j If the President of the town un- cjerstands the facts in the matter, 'and where the fault lies, we know that he owes it to his constituents to tnake those facts known in some way or other, and how better than the jpubjic press. If he does not, know then the gentlemen is perfectly right 'Jn keeping still until developements discloses the 'nigger"beyond a doubt 'as it would be entirely out of place to make a statement on supposition. lt must have facts. it ' |
