TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN: We, she undersigned members of the Jay County Bar, most of whom were engaged in the practice of law at the time the Hon. John A. M. Adair was clerk of the Jay Circuit! Court, have carefully examined a i printed pamphlet put in circulation i by N. B. Hawkins, charging that dur- j ing Adair's term of office, as clerk of | said court, some’ fifteen years ago, ho over-taxed certain fees in litigated cases and estates. In justice to Mr. Adair, we would say that no investigation was ordered or made, by any one in authority, but a pretended investigation for political purposes, was made by one Earl Pat-1 terson, of Muncie, who was and now is in |he employ of said N. B. Haw-; kins, Republican candidate for Ccn- j gress. ’ That we have examined said pamph- ‘ W and find the same is false, slan-i derous and misleading. That the fees taxed by Mr. Adair were within the | law. were approved by the court and were satisfactory to both litigants and I attorneys. His demeanor and conduct as • county official was gentlemanly, honest and courteous, and we a’e j frank to say that there were no fees ; illegally taxed cr collected by him, as : such clerk. JOHN M.
