manifested s t e d surprise at first and protested lie would buy sity though thou fili lie did lid not deny that lio lie know all about lip the objects and tho the acts of Ship lierd ho ile was dually led to say that although there exists in the public mind antich confusion as to the cochet claim and lie the peruvian company janythe the story is really a simple one lie ile said faid however that if ho lie should tell all lio lie knew and express expressing his real opinion in oi concerning lie would pol d very cry inthe likely lose allot all of investment peruvian company and probably subject himself liim self to prosecution for ii libel b ea by ship ord gradually hoac however ve r lie bec became more coin e and explained that the original collict ocl wnm divided into twenty parts by peter hevener a contemporary and of lichi ciggs in peru twelve of the c claim abin were sold or transferred to james montgomery now vice president odthe of alie cattle car company at cortlandt street N Y bonfi twentieth was sold ton to a name named caroy carey alio lie recently died lied returned a portion and dr slew art vart took what was equal to one fiftieth of tile whole when Ship lierd appeared on tho the scene sc licino for peruvian company stewart ivas induced to part gitil liis his interest to him on the un understanding er that irb il was to purchase so all the remainder of the claim in fact t tho lie doctor understood that Ship lierd had hall already contracted to purchase the shares held by mont and others and comert that ho 10 was to organize what is known as is the Pert peruvian ivian company all those parties refused to sell to but that person wont went promptly on with tho the organization of tile company com parly on a capitalization capi tali bation of tile only basis for the company therefore was tho the part transferred to Ship hord lierd by dr stewart on payment of was ready enough to pay me the sum of one dollar to make the ealo sale legal said dr stewart St but all tho the money I have liate ever received from him all the cash transactions between bus hus liaa bas been his transfer of money from my pocket t to hasas liis as I employed him aa as my lawyer to perfect my iny fialo to my fifteenth of the collict claim I agreed to pay him foj foi that service and I have paid him all ill but then the only ba peruvian company rests on is your one fifteenth part ortho of the oriz original inal claim asked tho the re reporter pa arter yes Cs bir fir that is all the bottom it lias las montgomery refused to sell liis his twelve twentieths and hevener blair and the others hold on to their interests Ship lierd elected himself liim self president ortho of the coin pan yand a chum or follower ni named lyman I think secretary lie I jo lias has never given any

which lio lie lias has never paid mo me a cent beyond one dollar all that I have to show is a piece of paper from abich is utterly erl worthless it cant bo be negotiated go tia t ady in any market in tho the world it cant bo be used as writing paper in fact it is useless if I had that stock I could sell it at an hours notice only two weeks ago I was offered for it the doctor declined stating who made the offer I wish I dared to talk more at length on the subject eaid said he finally tho the doctor continued but if Ship lierd learns that I have told the real history of his so called company lie will make mo me smart for it you you see im in his clutches just at present because I was foolish enon enough I to transfer my iny sto stock k to b him im and if ho chioso lie could deprive me of all the value it may possess I cant talk with the freedom as hevener and 31 montgomery can I only wish vish I could that man Ship hord is the smartest man I ever camo came across lie ile lias has been making capital for months out of the peruvian company although the whole tiling thing is a sham and a fraud from beginning to tho the end then lie is a model letter otter writer ive Ivo gota got a bushel of letters from him that would make delicious reading I can call assure you I understand that ho lie has a pile of extrac extracts Is from newspapers a foot high concerning liis his company on which ho lie proposed to baso base unnumbered libel suits iio ile keeps a clerk employed in ar arranging rangin ile these clippings in in a scrapbook ho is a genius in ill his way and all all these congressmen who are making such a fuss over him arc are wasting time there is nothing in ill the whole thin tiling my sly money is all there ever over was invested and my in y stock ia is all t there h ere is of th the cu company I only aisil I dared to talk more but I am afraid of jacob ho be is a terror |
