From the plaintiffs testimony it appears
that when the disastrous failure which
played such havoc later was pending, the
principals in the deal went to Mr. Mitchell
for the purpose Of borrowing $500. 600.
This sum the banker was not inclined TO
cornish, but promised to consider q propo-
IN TO furnish half that amount Wells

interests. While there he received a letter
from McGeOch, which is introduced 10 evil

that ne is intending to visit Mr. Mitchell to
see Il he can obtain $3.50, 900. The latter
concludes that if that amount Of money is

close the deal at once. The plaintiff
further says that at the conference held al
