sented, they made explicitly Acknowledge IT, COL
Lane does not deny this alleged alteration but declares that
all the changes made by him in conformity With the
authority vested in him.. not easy suppose that
could have authority TO the principles proessed by
the gners Of the memorial but he had the exercise
'sueh an authority would be act OF very questionable
