When he suggested settlement I said to him: 'Our counsel say it cannot be settled.' To which he replied that be oould give a complete estoppel in a way that had not been thought of by any of our counsel, but it would be uecessary for me to trust him with some part of the money, say $200,000, the balance to be held in trust until tt • suit was discontinued, and that the balance would give them something to work for. As they had claimed $6,000,000 In their civil suit, I thought this was a pretty big 'letting down;' but I declined to pay or offer anything for a settlement, and Mr. Andrews left.
