ContradiCts Ills
Charges.

Editor Advertiser: With reference
to the article published in your paper
| of March 10, 1905, entitled: Glow
Twenty S S s Crew. and the state
ments of Charles Lake therein, 1 would
say that the material matters therein
alleged are false.
Mr.. Lake came to my Office on April
II, 1904, and wanted to discount his
salary, stating that he was employed
by the Government, in the Road De-
partment, and was paid by warrant.
Previous to this time had never had
any dealings with him. He gave me u
note for $3.50 mot $40 as stated by
hlm), dated April IL, 1904, payable
April 20, 1904, which l discounted, and
to secure said note ne delivered to me
a salary warrant receipt. On the Goth
of April, 1904, (the previous indebt-
edness being still unpaid) Mr.. Lake
came to me twice, on each occasion
borrowing Sc for which he gave me
two notes, e@ch bearing date April 90,
payable May 5. l left Honolulu for
San Francisco on May 10, 1904, and
did not return until some time in De-
cember. In the meantime F+r. Lake
had not paid anything on account of
these obligations to me. Before leav-
ing Honolulu 1 deposited the salary
warrant receipt with one of the local
banks for collection, and was inform
ed upon my return that they had not
been able to collect anything from
Mr.. Lake or from the Government;
that Mr. Lake was not paid by warrant
as he had represented. On February
8, 1905, fled suit against Mr.. Lake
for the three notes above mentioned,
viz: $3.50, So and So, respectively,
and obtained judgment against him.
Mr.. Lake made no defense whatever
to the suit and ouered no evidence
although he was represented by coun-
sci, and must have known that had
he brought the matters which he has
published in his statement to the no.
tice of the Court he would have OBJ
tanned Judgment in his favor.
Mr.. Lake received full value for the
notes which he signed and delivered to
me and but So of lie amount of judg-
ment obtained against him has been
paid, this being by warrant held out :
by the Auditor s Department under
directions from the Court. /
1t is not true as stated by Mr.. Lake
that I would not lend him the money
unless he bought a watch, and the truth .
is. that after having made his arrange ,
ment with me concerning his loan Mr..
Lake saw the watch and agreed to pur-
chase it, for which he gave a separate
note to William Peterson. The trans
actions were entirely separate and dis
tinet and I had no interest whatever
in the watch TRANSACTION nor in the
note which was given therefor. 1 am
informed that Mr.. LAKE afterwards
IS from Mr.. Peterson, which
