The lawyer did so. Next year about the

ten dollar bill and the same request, came;
and every year since that time similar
letter. with q similar bib, has reached the
lawyer. Naturally he has felt some

letter came with ten dollars and an ex-

felt interested init, defended the man, and
got him clear. His bill would have been
