[Re. printed word-slinging between James Otis and the
Lieutenant Governor]
Admirable logical is that which follows----" a loud
trumpeting, &c. may be pretty well remembered, if
intimations of the same kind never escaped his honour"----
The reasoning seems to be thus----if intimations of the
trumpeting ever escaped his honour, then such trumpeting
cannot be pretty well remembered by anybody.----  Elegant
composition!. . . [signed] Springfield,. . . J.
