A Lie Deliberately Uttered
 I have just been informed that certain person is making the state ment that he slapped my face and took my pistol from me- during an unpleasant episode, in which was attacked while in the discharge of my duty as watchman at the passenger station. I unqualifiedly brand this statement as a malicious lie, and state that the only object this person had in making such a statement was to try to boost himself as a hero in the eyes of those not familiar with the occurrence.
