A Statement.

In justice to myself l wish to make
the following statement:
The statement that is being circulated
about Oakland that | refused to visit
the late John Collins during his last i'll
ness, while confined in the Garrett
county Jail, is absolutely false and
wholly without foundation. | visited
him daily until he asked for the Roman
Catholic priest and received the rites of
that church, then my sense of ministeri-
al etiquette forbade me making further
visits as never make pastoral visits
to members of other churches when
their own pastors are at hand, unless
by special request.
