Covington
Mr. Smith Wingate-
Dear Sir-I have been away from home & find your two letters on my return.
I am unable to recal the facts in reguard to the matters of your letters- So many cases of like charactered occured, that I am sure that I cannot call to mind the particulars in any one case-
Perhaps if I could see the record I might remember something more about the matter- But I doubt whether I could even with the record- remember any the particular facts-
It is most probable that the cases were tried before I became the judge in Owen. I will cheerfully examine any papers, & give you the benefit of any facts which I can call to mind.
Respectfully
Jas Pryor.
