new requisition papers. which were for
wardcd to McMachon last week
The warrant in the case was issued
by Magistrate w. ]. Griggs while
Magistrate J. a. Purdie signed the
deposition. In preparation to be sent
TO the Governors Office, where the
necessary documents had to be secured
for the extradition of Savithis, 1t was

The error was NOT due to any over
