with him. and occasionally he comes
to see me. but he never expressed
himself with any serious Intentions.

me at first sight. He kept up a close
correspondence with me, and last

panies such proposals. ! refused, Civ

nnmistakable terms that Jenkins

Carranza's statement that he could

Is negatived by the fact that he

taken Jurisdiction of jenkins In con-

viaes that Jenkins case should have
