misfortune and his feelings so cieve, y
that none Of those who saw him entei-

DR.. John A. Ferguson. member Of the
board and the Mayors family phvsi-
c'an, although he would not comment
ON the position he would take, cx-
pressed himself at length regarding the
instructions reported to have been sen,
BY Mayor Hylan from PALM Beach. IN
the first place he didn't believe "a word
of Tho story" Secondly, he declared
he had known the Mayor for thirty
years and "cven if Mrs. Hyan told me
he did that would rot believe it,"
"Mayor Hylan is ono of the Gnest
men ! ever knew" said DR.. Ferguson
"lle is utterly incapable of sending he
message he is reported to have scat
over the telephone. Some reporter just
wanted to i'Naginc things"

regarding the origin of the Palm Beach
