sence rumors were in active circulation, and that
Mr.. "A. W. Arlington contributed mainly to their
circulation. That demand was made at this

of US as we passed through that place whether

complied with on our part.

as ourself or office are concerned, are false. Mr.
Arlington never in any manner, shape or form. or
at any time, or through any friend made demand
of US or at our Office for the authors Of said
