publishers of the book. I told them I
had reason for believing that its au-

they tell me his right name?
They could not. They believed he

knew him by no other. I asked if they
could show me a letter of his. Certain-

side by Bide with the letter which
Grant had written me Just before my
marriage, and which I had fortunately
preserved. I compared the handwrit-
ing; then returned tho author's letter
to the publishers.
"Thank you," I said "I find I am
mistaken. My friend Is nJt such a for-
tunate man as I hoped to find him."
Then I went my way. Mistaken! No.
I was not mistaken, but I feared lest, in
writing to Grant, his publishers might

these inquiries. No; every doubt was
