"All in the family"

Negative notice

Transcription

“Our friend of the Providence Patriot is mistaken in attributing to us, the writings of “Inistail.” The credit of those writings, whatever it may be, belongs to another person, though it is, (to adopt the language of our neighbor up stairs) “all in the family.” – Brooklyn (Ct.) Unionist.”

“”All in the family,” is it? Then, to use the language of an Irishman who was once led into a similar error, we can only say to Mr. Burleigh,—“faith, sir, and we thought you were your brother!””

About this Item

Apparently an editorial, in one of the missing issues of The Unionist, by one of Charles Burleigh's brothers. The most likely candidate, of course, is William Burleigh, but even the eldest brother, John Burleigh, is a possibility.
