Kristian Boruff is the one who wrote the book, and is a good enough reader, though not masterminded, and yet he is so quick toubbing that he makes up lies, not according to the facts, but out of the semblance of them.

When I read the following letter I seemed to read it in the presence of sober reflection: "How different is this newspaper from the one I used to read in the vain hope of getting it to suit me, and then deciding not to publish it. And how much better is it that there is no responsibility for the printer! The fact that he does not send me corrections gratis justifies me.
