Arthur Spicer Brockenbrough to James Oldham
In consequence of some abominable Slanderous charges, and insinuations thrown out
against me in a letter directed to Thos Griffin Esqr member of the General assembly, Signed
a farmer in which I recognize you to be the author, I must withdraw my proposition made
some 8 or 10 days past to appoint arbitrators in Richmond to Settle your accts with the
University of Va.--after such conduct you certainly cant expect me to have any thing to do
with you or your accts untill after a complete investigation of my official conduct takes
place which I am well assured will be at the next meeting of the visitors of the University of
Va. this therefore is the last communication you will receive from me, until after that time--I
am Sir
A. S. Brockenbrough
