G.W. HAYWOOD, ESQ._The Narrative of Lunsford Lane, Formerly of Raleigh, N.C. Embracing an account of his early life, the redemption by purchase of himself and family from slavery, and his banishment from the place of his birth for the crime of wearing a colored skin

Attorney at Law, Raleigh, N.C.

To the above letter the following reply was made:

RALEIGH, Nov. 3, 1840.

MY DEAR SIR:--I have no objection so far as I am concerned, that all

further proceedings against Lunsford should be postponed until after the

adjournment of the Legislature.

The process now out against him is one issued by two magistrates,

Messrs. Willis Scott and Jordan Womble, over which I have no control.

You had better see them to-day, and perhaps, at your request, they will

delay further action on the subject.

Respectfully yours,
