they were all right. His papers bore the broad

these papers he had been registered and was a
voter in the city. The papers showed that he
had been in New York three years. The facts
showed that he had been in the country less
than year that he had never been before any
Court that his papers were a forgery and his
voting fraud. The authorities tell me that
