06/27/1832 REMOVAL OF JUDGE BATES,
The old Spanish proverb - " Save me from my friends, and I will take care
of my enemies" - was never more applicable than in the case of Judge Bates.
Some of his imprudent friends charged Col. Sevier, through the columns of
the "Advocate," with being the instigation of his removal. This has been
denied by the friend of Col. Sevier. But still his enemies are not satisfied.
They keep up on incessant whining about the removal, and demand the CAUSE.
They now have it below, in a letter from Maj. Noland, formerly Receiver of
Public Moneys, at Batesville - a gentleman of the first standing in society,
whose testimony will be conclusive with all who know him. The reader will
make his own comments.
