Court, has been from Mr R. Li. Fitzpatrick, who tells as much as ho knows (for which I am much obliirad) but he evidently does not know much about it as he had not heard of there beiiiEf subscribers other than the frionds of tho defendant. 1 know of several, one of them a total stranger to either plaintiff »r defendant in the action, and the general impression is that there arc many who gave their mite. Surely I am not asking too much of those who had the matter in hand, by rocjncsting them to clear tho business up, and lot the subscribers know what amount was collected and how it was expended.
