for criminal services, preferable to the chances of honest diminution thereof! But, twas ever your failing, John — the "itching palm," and it must explain your conduct now. Now, in consideration of all this, John, it is my purpose to admonish you, that blood is the sole specific for dishonor,--that, for a man to publish a vendetta were the grossest folly, if he at all suspected the flinching of his heart or arm from its accomplishment, --that a sword has long graced your side; and that I now wear one, too, although the warlike weapon is to me a comparatively novel acquisition; yet I warn you to guard this cartel always in your memory; for Providence, in these desperate times, may far sooner intersect our paths than either of us can dream of now and whenever and wherever he does, I fear not to invoke a just and retributive God to sustain and defend the right. Thos. W. Upshva. Lieut., "Wise Legion," Army of the Confederate States of America. Richmond, July 4, 1861.
