Republican And Patriot August 3, 1852
To the Democrats of Wayne County:

Early in the month of July, 1849, I happened to be at the Post office in 
Everittsville and Mr. Pierce Brogden came there enquiring for John Wright. I told 
Mr. Brogden that I was going towards Mr. Wright's house, and would attend to any 
business that he might have to transact with Mr. Wright, if he wished it.

Mr. Brogden replied that I could not attend to his business, as he wished to see 
Mr. Wright about a letter. He then went to Mr. Wright's, or in that direction, 
and in a short time afterwards Mr. Brogden returned accompanied by Mr. Wright, 
whereupon I saw Mr. Wright deposit a letter in the letter box, and shortly after 
the Postmaster, Mr. Murray, commenced making up the mail and took a letter from 
the box, addressed to the North State Whig, to which my attention was called by 
Mr. Murray's exclaiming, "Who is writing to the North State Whig from this 
place?"

I looked at the letter and saw that the subscription was in the handwriting of 
Mr. John Wright. All of which I certify to be true.
