that your access to documents, as well as the conversations you had

address to yourself was precluded by what 1 tool understood as the

now the means or covrectiog an ambignity, if oily thing of the suit
be supposed to exist in my statement.- I. cannot say, that in niy
vieie of the subject, any expression of mine is equivocal ; but if
there be town fio, a double construction, even troll' a wait of all-
vettenee in persons to the context, I must think myself fortunate in
an opportunity of renderher the points distinct.
