Of your speech the statement that | relieved

Garrison to communicate your language to me.
Your denial is based upon letter from Mr. j.
J. Davies to Judge Garrison, 10 which Mr.
Davies makes certain assertions founded upon q
conversation held with me. As | have not seen
Mr.. Davies's letter. l do not know what be
wrote to Judge Garrison, but here are the facts

reading your letter it is needless 10 say that the
epithcts used were never intended 20 apply TO
tho statement now made over your own
