"The contract which I, in perfect good faith, entered into with Fayette Allen and the Government I have fulfilled to the very letter. No man I have failed in the slightest particular in my duty to either. Mr. Allen received his exemption " for the war." Would it not be a violatioy and conscientiously every stipulation of my contract, both with Mr. Allen and the Government, and after being thrust out of the service wity thrust in again. But the truth is, that after discharging both Mr. Allen and myself, the Government has sought to conscript us both. The attempt to conscript Mr. Allen was made before I sued out my writ of habeas corpus; and the only means I had of protecting his rights was first to protect my own. If I have not done my whole duty towards Mr. Allen--of which, however, I have no doubt — I can now do so, which I couldpt myself; for it was as a conscript and not as the substitute of Mr. Allen that the War Department sought to force me into service.
