False Charge regarding Thomas H. Jones

A FALSE CHARGE CORRECTED.  Wilbraham, Aug. 28, 1854

Having heretofore published, in the ‘Morning Courier and Journal’, an article imputing to Thomas H. Jones fraudulent and dishonest practices in respect to raising money for the redemption of his step-son from slavery,   — which article I wrote on authority which I now find to be groundless.  —- I hereby retract all such imputations, and declare my full belief that they are untrue and unmerited, and express my regret that I have given currency to them.

GEORGE H. WASHINGTON

Signed in the presence of Rev. M. Raymond, Rev. Geo A. Sprywood, Rev. G. Haven
