After the decree had been read to Cutting
and q copy refused to him, he was carried
TO- the Office of the mayor provencio,
where he was formally set at liberty.
Consul Brigham and a number of Ameri-
cans were with him. A cordial shaking
Of hands between. Americans followed,
and all adjourned to a casino. on the cor
ner Of Cailede and Principal, kept by a
Marylander. Here they were compelled
to wait for a few moments for a street
cal, on which they expected to leave
Mexican soil. Dsnlin. the official inter
prefer. the mayor. and several Mexican
officials entered the casino, and a few
words were exchanged between the parties,
the evident intent being to arrest Cutting.
The latter in reply to some remark from
the interpreter, said to Danlin with finger |
Il will meet the five principals in this
matter later" This was said in an i'm
pressive manner, just as q man might say:
When l get YOU alone, we will have this
thing out" 1t was instantly interpreted.
and the mayor and Danlin cried out:
"Pues va as un muvo delito!" which, in
English, is; "A new offense." Several
Of the Mexlcans stepped toward him, but
the car having opportunity arrived, Cut
ting's American friends closed in around
him and hurrying him to the car, he was
as rapidly as the time table allows driven
across the border.
