Cronin we're paid representatives of the Eng

This evidence consists Of number Of let
ters written by Miss LeCxron, daughter Of

known and prominent young Irish American
of Chicago.
These letters were written by Miss Lee Caron

real character and in order to obtain from
them fuller insight to their plans and du-
piicty, and the designs of English govern
ment, he permitted them TO think he was
also vensl and could be hired by their en-
ployers. Finally, however they became
suspicious and sought to obtain from him
certain papers which they had given him in
his supposed character of spy. Cronin re-
fused to yield and threatened exposure Of
English practices in America. The Scot
