ELEVENTH LETTER.

[EXTRACT.]

_Rejoices at hearing of the success of the Underground Rail

Road--Inquires particularly after the "fellow" who "cut off the Patrol's

head in Maryland_."

HAMILTON, August 15th, 1856.

DEAR FRIEND:--I am very glad to hear that the Underground Rail

Road is doing such good business, but tell me in your next

letter if you have seen the heroic fellow that cut off the head

of the Patrol in Maryland. We wants that fellow here, as John

Bull has a great deal of fighting to do, and as there is a

colored Captain in this city, I would seek to have that fellow

Promoted, Provided he became a soldier.

Great respect,
