conocido por ell Grillo. Este indivi
duo tenia un juicio pendiente ante
la referida corte por Ell supuesto deli
to de seduction, y ell mes pasado Sc
fugo para la vecina repdblica de San
to-Domingo. El Sr. Atilano, en- pre-
vision de no perder su fianza, hizo
todas las diligencias que lie fueron
possible para obtener la captura del
profugo Rodriguez. En- su afan
de buscar los medies por don
de poder traer al profugo de San

vlduo Jose Ramon Torres (a) Mon
