Thia ia known and remombered as the “Jlotgan Abduction.” Having been conuected with that question as & member of an Investigats ing committeo and as the editor of an antl-Mo- sonic journal, T have been called on by tho New York IHerald for information contorning tho budy of a man found on tho ehoto of Laka On- tario, alleged Lo bo that of Willism Morgan, but clafined afterward to Lo the body of Timolby Monroo. The allegations of mutliating that body, of palming it off upon the publio tor polit- ical effect, and of boasting that it was n “ good onough Morgan till after tho clcotion,” wero publicly made, widoly eireulated, and at a dis- 1anco gonerally believod.

Whon spplied to by Mr. Dyer, my next-door noighbor, whoro Morgan bonrdod, to priut tho book purportiug to disclono the secrets of Masonry, I decliued to do so, belleving that o man who bad taken an oath to keep a socret had noright to discloso it, Although not s Kreo Mason, I had ouvfortninod favorablo opinlons of an institution to which Wasnington, Frank- lin, and Lafayetto belonged, On my refusal to print his book Morgan remaved to Datavia, where he made tho acquaintance of David O.
