Now. Mr. Speaker. we have the testimony of Isaac Jenkinson. a man all concede to be one of the most honorable men in the State of Indiana. a prominent citizen. and all parties. even the majority of the committee. admit him to be of the most respectable character. and whose word would be taken anywhere upon any question. It is said that his testimony is vague and shadowy upon this proposition with reference to the naturalization ofthe coatestee. because of an indistinctness of memory as to the occurrence. Mr. Jenkinson is the only one of the witnesses now alive. The testimony shows that there were but few men present in court at the time. for it is proven here that it was at a time when there was no trial going on. and none were present except those who were called to participate in the naturalizalion of the contestee.
