his bring aline, that it became necesstry to inform hint,
that if he did not aulnutarily afford the t►lfi:er ow duty an
opportunity to certify the fact required how him, name-
ly, that 1w was alive,' there would be a oettesity the
Off'icer's making a daily personal •nit to bias *,r that pur-
pose. Ile his since relaxed in Lis manners in Ibis respect,
