Brother Beebe: Brother R. Burritt’s letter, in the second number of the present volume of the Signs, contains so grave and severe a charge against you, in your editorial capacity, that I think the friends of the Signs are called upon to step forward and vindicate that paper from those charges, in self-justification, if nothing else, for patronizing it. if no other communication comes forward in its defense, you may publish the following if you please. Although I feel ashamed of occupying so great a portion of the Signs as I shall do if all my communications recently sent out on our published.
