learned that a job of the kind they had
done in Connelsville without consult
ing Ed had gone wrong and the oppo-
sition had got an atiidavit. He said
we did not do this ourselves, but |
friend of ours did 1t and laid awake a |
week at nights worrying over it and 1t
has turned out as | had expected" He
continued: you have done mighty
good job though ana you have got credit
for it with Wanamaker and Dolan. |

had got us another man. You won't be
forgotten for II whether II goes through
or not. ! think we ought to go right
ahead with II. but PERHAPS Dolan is
right for bad break now would make
hell of mess" He then had me
wire Winsboro, impossible to keep en-
gagement today. Look for lctter to-
night. / told him ] was going to
