          I could not dare it, to express to You, my kind Patron, my whole indignation
 against such a baseness so unconcealed, if I were not sure of Your philanthropic
 participation of the fate of Your poor protegees; besides it is to my own
 vindication.


 This mentioned ignominious imposition, has been attented with quite other mournful 
 consequences to the victim of that, the totally ruin of the victim, how I will 
 explain in following.


 At first I must remark, that I have found, my noble countrymen, especially in
 Graham Avenue etc. of W. feel a malicious pleasure, if they can cheat one, or if one
 is cheated and ruined by another. Should that be so in generally in the glorious
 Union of America, I doubt, then, the assertation of men in our own country
 home, is true, that the German are not yet reap to freedom, that they can be
 governed only by Despotismus.


 After that harmeless pleasure, of having deceived one, "sic dictum" Greenhorns,
 or not, the worthy sharpers first care is, to robb also honour and good name of their
 unhappy victims! That will be no miror to every one Psychologist and Anthropologist,
 bad people knows, that they can best overcover their crimen with glory by culuminating 
 their victims.


 Sharper Buchholz has done so and Mike Hoehn the same, for it was fatal
 to them, when I, a Greenhorn, with a sense of honesty, dared it, to attack their [knavery?] 
 by laws. The former, before attacked his burghlary in our Partnership, did call me 
 an intelligent and skillfull Pharmacien to every one, later, when I had tried to pursue 
 him with aid of laws on account of false fraudulente pretenses he published 
 to every one, that he had a miserable partner - a loafer and God knows what all 
 yet more, though I had formerly asked him, to give me a definition of a "Loafer" 
 with animals I till to that time did not yet know in our German Naturhistory.


 As to Mike Hoehn, "Medicus, si poscit remunerationem, Satan est."
 Honest Mike had reached his purpose, the preservation of his putrid suspicious
 eye, by me, afterwards he had called in vain for help of physicians and even
 of [Quacksalbers?] since two years, he had reached even the healing of the
 suspicious wounds, ulceres, on his legs, with aid of my adapted internal and
 external remedies, I repeat once more, I had preserved him for not to grow
 an eye, for not to grow an object of horror, etc. etc.


 I have communicated to You, my kind Patron, what an acquivalent
 this noble exemplar of patient has offered me for my expensive medicines,
 troubles, loss in business and visits during two and a half months! I could as
 answer to his generous offering but show him my specificated Bill, and if
 he would have offered me $20., I would have settled with him. But, his mind
 was, to pay nothing at all, for he knows, a poor can not undertake a lawsuit,
 and, if You my dear Sir, should have heard, that that fellow were inclined
 to pay me $15, it is false; he pays not his washerwomen without
 process.  So says even his own attorneys, whom Mike employs always,
 for lawsuits are the Element of this miserable and thick-headed German Michel.
