Never heard a poem, now, that run something like this, did you? A good thing out of Nazareth Comes up sometimes, I guess, On hand, all right, to help and cheer A sucker in distress." "I believe not," said Mr. Cooly. "It's a hymn," said J. Pinkney Bloom. "Now, show me the way to a livery stable, son, for I'm going to hit the dirt road back to Okochee."
Unofficial information of this transaction reached England July 25, just one day after Monroe and Pinkney had addressed to Canning a letter communicating their instructions to reopen negotiations, and stating the changes deemed desirable in the treaty submitted.

"When Lord Wellesley's answer speaks of the offence imputed to Jackson, it does not say he gave no such cause of offence, but simply relied on his repeated asseverations that he did not mean to offend."
