Mr.. FEsDALL confused AZ follows; fere8
Having established ihe defendants guilt by showirg
his OF for carrying the pretended mining
operations at Lasun,llas, shall now reach the same
conclusion by exhibiting him TO you having been else-
WHERE and engaged IN business wholly inconsistent with
such an enterprise And this brings me TO the second
head OF these observations: s9
II is manifest on The face OF the memorial that if the
defendant was engaged from The l2ih OF Juy 1871 10
the 24h Of October, lSa6 IN The magnificent minDg es-
tabishmeGt which desciibes il he had Invested $780,
392 ii he had erected extensive buildings; il he had
employed five hundred men there, with their tames II
he was carrying on operations which required constant
attention aud supervision his part; ii he doing
the various things stated in his memorial he must have
been personally present al his mines. II is against all
experience TO- suppose that man wonld embark nus all
60 bmsef 10 distant part OF the country, hundreds OF
miles oH and there devote himself compa AtveIy In
significant business. He had denounced, and en-.
dsavong TO bring into activity al immense outlay OF
money, OF the old abandoned mines; and his all was
on the result OF The enterprise. The nature OF
proves that il his memorial be true he must have been
at The Lagunias mines all The time Blu, we are rot left
TO inference conjecture on this point. This man
tells you himself that he was constantly at hs mine
is also we'll known, he says in his protest, that
my presence absolutely requisite for its prosperity"
