to the Logan school and entreated her
mother to let her go, as she could learn
more there than at the local schools

know whether Mesa, as he called the
plaintiff, would so or not but tele-
graphed her from Salt Lake to join him

girl of this fact, but did not give her
the reasons why his father had sent for
him to return He knew his father was
opposed to his going with the plaintiff

from Logan he renewed his visits and
while he admitted some affection for
the plaintiff, he protested that he had
never engaged himself to marry her
and that the ring spoken of by the
plaintiff was just merely a friendly
gift He admitted the criminal rela-
