Shelby Co, with the County Judge (Hooper), an arch-rebel, who would be a fit official to be removed.

The County Judge in San Augustine is better trained for instance, he acquitted a colored man for the same offence, for which he just had fined a white man. He is a jack-ass and an unprincipled man.

I have not been able to procure another copy of Bewley's paper in regard to Radical talk. 

I hope, you will be with us, when the voting is going on; my clerk Brown is writing out the tickets now, which are to be distributed among the colored voters. Certainly not by my order, but on his own account.

Good by for this time
I remain
Yours truly
Albert A. Metzner.
