out of the muscles, so that it was USE
less for work he says. 81 applied
Chamberlain Pain Balm and wrapped
the arm in flannel at night, and to my

GTimes-Union, May Is, 1907
Editor Times Union-The evening pa
per Of this city in f1aring headlines on
yesterday afternoon stated that my son
had pleaded guilty to the charge of Ii
bel. This is not true as, under no cir
eumstances, would he have pleaded
guilty to the charge. It Is due to him,
however, that there shall be published
reasons why, by the advice of his at
torneys, he withdrew his plea of not
guilty and entered a plea of nOlo con-
tendere with declaration of his inno-
cence Of the charge.
UNABLE To TAKE TESTIMONY ABROAD.
When the proceedings were brought
against him and Mr.. Taylor we filed in
terrogatories and application for the is
suing of a commission to take the tes-
timony Of two witnesses in New York,
intending, If it was granted, to sue out
other commissions. The state objected
to the issuing of the commission and
court sustained the objection, and it be-
came apparent that, unless we could
get the witnesses to come to Florida,
we would lose evidence we regarded as
material to the defense. / employed
attorneys in New York to see the wit |
nesses and ascertain il they would come |
to Florida and testify, offering to pay
their expenses. They declined to do |
30, but stated they were perfectly will |
ing 70 testify in New York. AS a re-
suit we were entirely deprived Of the |
testimony Of every person not residing |
in the state Of Florida. Had this been |
a civil case there would have been no |
trouble whatsoever, and the remarka- |
be anomaly in Law is seen that In q |
quasi criminal or criminal case, where |
Ire liberty IS well IS the property Of q |
defendant IL at stake, II the Offense is !
! misdemeanor, he IL utterly deprived
u his defense II the witnesses TO prove
bis innocence live outside Of the state.
