He admitted being Indebted to tho
bank on his personal note for 1920. At
the time OF the assignment he was In
debted as endorsee on notes amounting
to &l700, but this amount had since been
paid, mainly by himself. Stockwell then
proceeded to explain that he was not liza

trio ipsu lation, of which the promoter
was j. Fl. Benton, and that the money
had been placed in his hands to be turned
over TO the corporation when formed.
When pressed for the names OF those
