ward NJ. McGlennen, counsel for the
mining company. took turns in read
ing testimony taken during this
month at Boston. The testimony in

The special dividend which the

81, 500, 900, recovered from Albert S.
Bigelow, of Boston, for secret profits
he secured in selling the property of
the Old Dominion of Maine Company

ulate the able management of this
