Mr. lturiss's statement, was I; substantially correct as to the i amount the witness owed to tiii, State. lie proposed to settle it n with the board in December last li but lie was sick. He proposed to] settle it and to pay evety single 1 uickle and not call on bis bonds-1 man for a cent. Ul Mr. Buriss's statement was con- a scientious and correct.
