cashed the bank failed. Several telc-
grams were interchanged. Finally the
ship wired Cary & Co, that they
would protect the check when it ar
rived. The message was delivered
reading protest" instead Of protect

the transportation company with their
attorney, win J. oven, arrived in Pen
sacoIa with copies Of the telegraph
correspondence from the CarrabeIlc
Western Union office When these were
shown to Cary & Co and the bill paid.
