ExpLANArIoN.--ln our issue of the lIth instant,
appears report Of certain testimony taken In a
ease s before Justice Dom, against DIR. Daily and
MIR Close, which, considered aside from the re.
port OF the following evening, is calculated to
convey an impression unfavofable to the gentle
men In question, and place them in false posi-.
. sloa bsi0te the public We deem It dse them,
was not sustained, as will appear by oar report
Of the following evening; and that thew were
promptly and honorably discharged by the Jus.
statement from the Justice himself 5 P Wseb s
trust Will be satisfactory, and remove all erro.
neous differences and conclusions against them:
Mr Editor: BY request. would state that the
testimony taken by me In the case Of the United
States agt DR.. Daily and Mr. Close, while it en-
hrely exonerated and acquitted DR.. Daily from all
participation in the matter, clearly established In
my Judgment the entire absence Of any intention
on the part Of Mr., Close to injure or defraud the
prosecuting witness The testimony also estab-
fishes the fact that some ten or twelve DAYS after
the assignment OF the prosecuting witnesses inter
esq inc patent right In question to Mr. Close he
expressed himself perfectly satisfied with the
transaction, and subsequently was engaged by
Mr.. G: to do some painting In Alexandria, which
he did do. The testimony also satisfied me that
the "patent rght'' was Of verv little value Moth
ing appearing to connect DR.. Daily with the trans
action, promptly dismissed him and examined
him as witness And In view of the whole eyi.
oence adduced: was perfectly satisfied, and am
now, that Mr. Close acted from the best of motives
and In good faith with the prosecuting witness
and that the charge of dragging or swindling was
without any foundation whatever. He was hon.
orahlY discharged And I further now believe
that the whole matter of the arrest caused by the
prosecuting witness was a conspiracy to extort
money from Mr. Close. THos c. DosN,JP
paid particular attention to the above case and
cheerfnlly concur in the foregoing statement Of
Justice Dom. LII JosysoN p
fully concur with Justice Dom in the state
ment rendered above. Allow.
believe that there was not the shadow Of cause
OF charge against Mr.. Close and Mr. Daily.
