A year or so ago I tried a
case from Eagle against Sneveley
involving the Townsite v Homestead
& Sneveley was beaten. I had
forgotten it until this morning
when I received a threatening
letter from him enclosing copies
of two of the most scurrilous
letters possible which he said
he had sent to the President
during this last summer.
As I always do, I filed it [previous word struck through] {them} away
and will forget that such a man
as Snevely ever existed. If
I gave attention to every blackmailing
blackguard in the country who attacks
me I'd have nothing else to do.
