from the transmittcr, and others speak too
rapidly and indistinctly. Then they get
mad and blame the girls or the telephones.

the person speaking"

fact was noted at the time. If it had beer

have been added or one would have been

fact was recalled that movement foI
much the same end was undertaken by

have been in close conference at Ashcvillc.
Gen. Clarkson has been there some time,
