had received a letter from Salisbury
and tried to turn over its contents to
Mrs. Salisbury, but did not succeed.
Later he offered TO be- of what assistance
he could to the state and as Salisbury
had eventually been captured, the

pressing the case against Mattern
now.
Major Hull also moved a nolie, which

that probation would satisfy justice
in the case and Major Hull did no
oppose it.
