mo Il my partner Ralnforth aro now under in
diotment for conspiracy to defrnud 4 on account
of my boing East our trial will havo to be do
ferod. Also It's very doubtful II Brown did rob
me-that may havo given Brown the money
that might have q good excuse for remaining
away from Chicago. Also that the siates Attorney
WAS very indignant when he learned Of my ah-
senco, but has dono ali in bis power to punish
theao tro swindlerB. My rop1y is this: I was
walking down Broadway on the morning Of tho
10th inst, and met Ell Brown. Waa glad to 800
him, ns had dono him some favors in daya
course, meeting him hero he must be- vol fixed
for money. So imagine my disappointment,
when ho told mo ho vhs broke and asked for q
loan, and ho got It, a small ono, however. From
thet time until Saturday isth @ inst,, We mot mot
rather carly, md cold disagroaab1e morning

something We repeated several times through
