Mr.. Coltax Ito Judge Poland)-I rest
the case sir
On Saturday some revelations were
made that hopelessly involve Senator
Patterson of New Hampshire. Cakes
Ames produced and read the following
receipts from him
Washington, June %, 1868. Received
of Cakes Ames 81 800 on account of divi-
dends received by him as Trustee on stock
held for MY account
j. w. PATTERSON.
BOSTON. May 6, 1871 Received OF Cakes
Ames 200 shares OF Union Pacific Railroad
stock, and ST57. "a in cash, on account of
Credit Mobllier stock, and there is still
due on the transaction 80 shares OF stock
in the Credit Mobilier of America. and
$1,000 in the income bonds of the Union
Pacific Railroad. ]. w. PATTERSON.
These were clinched by letter which
Ames handed to the chairman, who read
as follows
WASHINGTON, D. c., JAN 4. 1873.
Hon. CAKES AMEs-My Dear Sir: The
facts in respect to the Credit Mobilier, so
far as | had any connection with it, were
as follows; You came TO me one day
knowing that 4 want of means was 4
chronic evil with me, and said: ''Patter-
son, if You would like can let you have
thirty shares OF stock in the Credit Mobil-
ier. which | think will be a profitable
investment, and will be a good thing for
You" My reply in substance was, that if
Won had anything which could properly
invest in, and out of which could make
some money, ! should be glad to take it {;
but that had not the money at that time,
and must defer it till | could get it. Your
reply was, that You presumed could get
it later when it might be convenient and
YOU regarded it a perfectly legitimate
transaction. AT that time you did not and
could not anticipate you should ever ask
tor further Legislation from Congress in
respect to the road, amt YOU never did,
except when it was forced upon you by
the Secretary.
After this conversation with me you
may have had the impression that should
take the stock some time; but for some
reason or other-perhaps for want of
funds-l never took any of the stock. If
| never had any stock in the Company, |
could not Gas did noD have its divl-
dends.
II pressed to know, If | purchased at
any time any bonds or stock Of the Road.
you can say, did at the time they at
tempted to elnbarrass YOU. when the value
OF the stock was depressed, and l paid
Won the full market value for it | paid
YOU 81 900 in money tor stock and bonds
The stock was put into the hands of Mr.
Morton, the same week, to sell As soon as
il should 90 up in the market, which he
did. | saw Mr.. Morton on my way
through, and he said he had never held
any stock in the Credit Mobi!ier for any
one; but did not wish to have his name
brought into the transaction if it could be
avoided
| am going to Ohio will see YOU on
my return. Don't fail to correct your
original statement before the Committee.
L mus not be reported rs i now stands.
Very truly,
(Signed) J. w. PATTERSON.

would put us on board to WORT, our passage. I
asked him what he was going to do with my
