Greene, Bsq.: Deak Sir: Your letter by way of the Hart- ford Courant has been received and the import- ‘ance of the personal pronoun noted. You will excuse me for having supposed that the subject matter of a private interview in the library of your own house was not yours for publicution without the knowledge or con- sent of both parties to the interview; neverthe- Jess,the lawa of good taste and neighborly cour ‘tesy do seem to point in that direction. . Too much Tontine has ruined your memory, upset your judgment, and spoiled your man- ners. You hold Tontine so close to your eyes that you cannot see anything else, and it hag led you to imagine that the objet of my visit was to convert and lead you into the Tontide temple of worship with McCurdy, Hyde and Beers, consequently you have perverted and twisted the conversation until I fatt tu recog- nize any part of it as it comes from your hand. ‘The great anxiety which you manifest for the interest of the policy holders in the Tontine companies is getting to be a very expensive matter to the policy holders in the Connecticut Mutual, and very many of them have inquired and are now inquiring why you do not pay more respect to their feelings and the divi- dends of your own polley holders and spend less of their money in advertising Tontine. I would much rather have alittle larger dividend oa my policies in the Connecticut Mutual than read your letters on Tontine, the publication of which costs the company from one dollar to one dollar and filty cents per line, aggregating @ large sum of money and the expenditure of N. ¥.—This {sa superior collection of is and | valuable time.
