produced

were attriouted
to him.
We are glad however,
to state

without

Never more

to find himself figuring in print,

in
such wise,
Licutenant

upon
learning the situation,
immediately
fook
steps
to
counteract
the
evil impression
made
by th-publication,
by calling
upon,
and speaking
the matter
over, with those
concerned.
