had . claim against the Navy Depart
ment for some guns which he had fur
nished 1t during the war. Whether it
was just claim or not, il an open
question. At oil events it was finally
allowed, the amount being S72,060.3s

good, never dreaming that he would
betray the trust reposed in him The
widow swears that abe hasn't received
q cent Of the money. A man capable
OF such meanness would be quite at
home making false entries in his
memorandum book and COMMITTING
perjury before a Congressional inves-
tigating committee.
