wherever and however It was done,
the killing was murder and the 'at :

Il am not prepared now to saw
whether President Madero was mlr-

body behind the penetentiary."
Gen Garibaldi said that the Maderos

1T * equally untrue that my brother

that my brother ordered the Federal

within his rights there. But ! do not
