 MULKEY'S DENIAL
 Geneva, May 2, 1921 President, Dean of Law Class and other Members of the Faculty, University of Alabama,
 Gentlemen: Geneva Reaper. a newspa- per published locally here, in undertake ing to publish garbled portions of a speech that l made here, stated among other things that said in effect that a man could do no greater injury to his boy than to send him to the Univer- sity of Alabama, where he was taught to become drunkard, crapshooter and an infidel
 "I beg to advise you that no such state ment was made by me, either in effect or otherwise, and the editor missouri strued entirely what was in fact said, which was in no sense uncomplimentary to the faculty of the university, but which had reference only to students, if such there be, who go to the university or any other college for the purpose of spending their money in riotous living, and not for the purpose of being bene- fitted.
 Tt is probable, of course, that you would never see the item, but in justice to myself and to you, and to my son who is in school. I feel it my duty. of course, to disavow any such speech or sentiment, and shall request the Reaper to make corrections. If this should be reproduced in any paper, which comes to your knowledge, I would thank you to have this letter published in the same paper.
 with best wishes yours truly.

in the ceiling from the bullet just
above the table. The shot entered
under the chin and blew off the
whole front of his head. :.
The coroner decided that Mr.. John
