7913. SLANDER, Character vs.—
For
myself, when placed under the necessity of deciding
in a case where on the one hand is
a young and worthy person, all the circumstances
of whose education and position in life
pronounce her virtuous and innocent, and on
the other the proneness of the world to sow and
spread slander, there is no hesitation in my
mind.—
To St. George Tucker.
Ford ed., vi, 425.
(Pa.,
1793)
