The following is a report which I asked a committee of the west side of the county to make for the errata: — "After the turmoil was over and the excitement incident to the Pat Cleary trial had died down, and people were once more able to view the matter as history and with an unprejudiced eye and sane mind, (for as all know a mob is not sane for the time being), it was generally conceded and- almost universally believed that J. P. Harman's decision was not the result of undue influence either momotary or otherwise." Page 55—line 2—Vol. 1, page 50, General Statutes, quoted the originally from the Supreme Court Report.
