Some Selected Reports from the Salisbury and Winchester Journal
Monday, February 3rd, 1812
Whereas I did, on Wednesday the 22d day of January instant, in public company, in the town of Southampton, make use of very gross and improper language respecting the character and situation of
Mr.Thomas Jackman, of Wood Mill, in the parish of South Stoneham, yeoman, and for which he has justly threatened to commence legal proceedings against me, but is induced to refrain therefrom, but reason of my thus having publicly asking his pardon, contradicting and proclaiming my assertions unfounded and unjust, and promising never to offend in like manner again. I now humbly thank him for his lenity.- Dated this 31st day of January, 1812.
