Phila: March 21st 1852

Sir:
I addressed you a note more than ten days since in reference to certain [?] [?] said to have been made by you at Harrisburg
concerning myself. 
I expect a distinct & positive answer to my letter on the points it contains. This is a matter which does not admit [?] of compromise on ideals. I must have an answer. No man can live & slander my character in the terms that have been ascribed to you. You must either deny or retract. Just as the case may be. 

Yr [?] [?] 
Robert Tyler

Hon:
Jemin Common

Robert Tyler to Hon: Simon Ganeron
