Reclining on q couch in the wide corridor of

Cassie L. Chadwick was seen tonight.
1T seems very good to be back in Cleveland

that 1 am among my friends. l am especially
delighted at the treatment accorded me on all

been correctly quoted by some of his interview

New-York for funds is too ridiculous for utter
ance. He is plentifuly supplied with money.
"Since talking with an attorney and with the
sheriff, I convinced that / owe il to my
friends to tell my side of the story. I had hoped

woman, that 1 have never wrongfully obtained
money from any one. and that Will repay every
dollar of my indebtedness For the next two
or three lays I will consider the important mat
which I referred. and will decide on my
attorney. Then I Will plan my fight for free

name"
