uv coarse oppose—

Coercin the secedid staits;

The mobbin uv Methodis, Presbyterin, Luthrin,

I appele confidently too the Dimokrasy for support.
The actooal, ginooine principles uv Dimokrasy
need a able defender, and I 'm the identicle
individooal. My hole sole is in the coz, and I am
pecooliarly fitted by eddicashen and tastes for the
posishen.

wich the Sundy-skool skolars wuz present. I unbended
myself, and kist em onct apeece, takin a nip
of corn essense atween times, wich wuz nessary.
Mistakin a mother for her infant, the infooriated
husband assaulted me. I wuz reskood afore much
