my removal and Saturday night in
a talk to me over the telephone he
left me under the same impression
On Monday following l discharged
Chiles and his wife. Chiles had all
along proven to be a source OF
trouble in the asylum. He had
been disappointed because he was
not given an office, his wife being
among my appointments as matron.
AS no Office remained for him, he
became an attendant. HeIwas rec
commended to me by the men who
are now trying to secure my re-
moval. He displayed so much hos
tility to me that l called the atten-
ton of Inspector Hines to his atti-
tude and Mr.. Hines talked TO him
in my presence and he agreed to
change his course and give me no
further trouble. then gave him a
more desirable line of work and he
expressed himself as satisfied.
This was not long after a vacancy
had occurred in the supervisor 5
office. Chiles wanted this place,
bnt l appointed Dick Robinson, of
Bowling Green, one of Inspector
Hines friends. His next move was
to prefer the false charges as above
referred to.
About three weeks ago l obtained
undoubted evidence that a con-
spiracy existed to bring about my
removal. A letter addressed to
DR.. Lackey by Prison Commissioner
Geo. V. Green was left lying in one
of the public rooms of the asylum.

and not weaken on his statements

troubles were to some extent over.

was just before Chiles and Lackey
