evening or next morning. Mr.. Burlingame replied
Indicating Saturday and the Clifton House on he
Canada side of the Niagara Falls, as the time and
place for meeting. 1t would be manifesty impossible
for Mr.. Brooks to travel 900 miles of the nom

more impossible for him to return in case Burlngame
should fall as be would certainly be arrested or mob

Buringame the opportunity to call upon him. and
will give him a meeting at any possible time or
place. Burlingames appointment is looked upon as

The excursion train was directed to reach Fort
Washington by A. NJ, and if il became fifteen
minutes behind time it was to be kept out of
the way of the regular train. The regular train was
running as usual, leaving Gwynned at 6 A. NJ, al
which time The excursion Train was due at Fort
Washington, and the regular train was not due there
until Is A. NJ. We understand that the excursion
train was more than Is minutes behind time at Camp
