Generals Beauregard and Early Defend Lottery Claim
A letter attacking a claim by Beauregard and Early is declared untrue and unworthy. The writer explains how honest drawings work by exposing or omitting ticket numbers in the wheel and urges the generals to show the exact tags on the wheel to prove fairness. A caller could verify by asking to see a specific number placed in the wheel. The generals are praised as brave but misinformed on honest lottery practices.
