Excerpt from Reply to a Pamphlet Recently Circulated by Mr. Edward Brooks

Few things are more odious in the view of mankind in general, or more repugnant to their instinctive sense of propriety, than an attack on the memory of the dead.

When the deceased is admitted to have been a per son of warm and generous feelings, endued with a high sense of honor, and peculiarly disinterested and self~= sacrificing, the case is much aggravated.

But when, in addition to all these circumstances, he was the near relative of the parties who make the attack, nothing short of the strongest and clearest necessity can justify or excuse it.
