But when Mr. White is the only man in the county of Allen who says. "I obtained a certificate. but it is lost."I and yet his name is not recorded among the names of those made citizens by that court. then his case is peculiar. If Mr. White had said. "I was naturalized. but they gave me no paper." his case would have been stronger. Why. sir. these blanks are filled up. and one of them is given to the citizen while the other is retained. Mr. Whites position is that the officer of the court gave him one of the certificates and retained in the office the other blank.
