Note by John Allan, January 13, 1831

I recd this on the 10th, & did not from it
conclusion, deem it necessary to reply
I make this note on the 13th & can see no
good Reason to alter my opinion. I do not
think the Boy has one good quality.
He may do or act act as he pleases, tho' I
wd have saved him but on his own
terms & conditions since I cannot believe
a word he writes, His letter is the most
barefaced one sided statement.
