"It Is but a few moments; that
there is a hereafter, and thut if I
were leaving the world with a lie
on my tongue 1 wouldn't have the
chance 1 have if I tell the truth,
and realizing that as I do and be
lieving that to be the truth, the
, only, thing I can say is that 1 am
innocent.
"I am dying without any pre

given by me nnd I ask forgiveness
in place of It as much as possible,"-
. .. .
