cognzed as their son, and they in turn were Away
| treated as his parents. In the time necessary for
hat purpose, David G. Crasto, the father, was natu
ralized He supposed, and all who were CONVEX
SAINT with the matter believed, that the son, Abra
ham g. Crasto, also naturalized, and such would
have been the case. for SO is the law, At Abraham
.e S stated o. hv Nv DAVID G. casio b
| Abraham was his nephew, that he had adopted HIM
and pnrposely had concealed the fact that he was
