For some time past, in fact ever since John Mathewson received the Republi can nomination for county clerk, cer tain hellish ghouls, who fatten their putrid carcasses on defamatory stories on good men's character, in endeavors to bring them down to their level, have been circulating false and malicious lies in regard to Mr. Mathewson’s con nection with the Green case near Litch lield. The case of the jsad death of Green by an exploded cream separator, and of Honest John Mathewson’s big hearted endeavors to help the widow and fatherless orphans is too well known to need repeat the history. The follow ing affidavits in regard to the matter should forever still the mouthings of the scandal-mongers: State of Iowa. i < ss. Black Hawk County, / I. J. T. Sullivan, being first duly sworn upon oath say that I am engaged in practicing law at Waterloo. Iowa, that r am general attorney for the Iowa Dairy Separator Company; that 1 am personally acquainted with John Mathew son and Mrs. Charles Green, of Litchfield. Ne braska; that in June 1905. 1 went to Litchfield as counsel for the Iowa Dairy Separator Com pany of Waterloo, Iowa., after the death of Charles Green for the purpose of investigating the facts connected with the accident which caused the death of Charles Green; that after investigating the facts. I arrived at the con clusion that there was no liability whatever against the Iowa Dairy Separator Company on account of said accident. The separator in question which caused the accident, had bcfi. in operation for about live years, many repairs having been made on it by Mr. Stewart, th owner of said machine and farmupou which it was located, also the guard hud been re moved from the machine and also that it was operated without a guard at the time of the accident. That the apparent destitute con dition of Mrs. Green and her small children appealed to me and 1 felt the desire to give her some assistance. I said to her at the time that I wanted to help her aad asked her what amount would be satisfactory to her. She stated that she would appreciate anythin that x would give her. Site then state . th;.; One Hundred-fifty Dollars (150 u0> would be of great value to her and would carry her through the winter and would put them in position where she could support her family without any difflclty. I told her that I would give her a check for this amount as soon as she became administratrix of her husband’s estate. After this conversation Mr. John Mathewson came to me at Litchfield and insisted that I was not giving Mrs. Green as much money as I should under the circumstances. He insisted that she should have Five Hundred Dollars (500.00), in order to purchase a small home for herself and children. After discussing the matter over for some considerable length of time, I finally con sented to give her Three Hundred Fifty Dol lars (350), provided that the people of Litchfield would add One Hundred-Fifty Dollars (f 150) t<> buy her a home, Mr. John Mathewson agre- 1 to see that the additional One Hundred-Fifty Dollars would be raised uijon subscription. I have been -informed since that time that rumors have been circulated in the vicinity of Litchfied that Mr. John Mathewson received One Hundred Dollars from me as compensation for assisting me in making the settlement. This statement is absolutely false and untrue. Mr. John Mathewson did not re ceive a single penny from me or any other per son connected with the Iowa Dairy Separator Company for any services rendered, but upon the contrary the affiant states that he was compelled to pay to the estate of Charles Green Two Hundred Dollars ($200.) more than Mrs. Green had agreed to accept for her claim for damages against the said company. By reason of the presistent efforts of said John Mathewson and because of the said John Mathewson’s guaranteeing that he would raise enough money in addition to this Three Hun dred-fifty Dollars to buy Mrs. Green a home in Litchfield, and that such rumors as has been circulated against John Mathewson is false arid untrue and malicious, and without any foundation whatever therefore. J. T. Sullivan. j Subscribed in my presence by the said J. T. Sullivan and sworn to before me this 23rd day of September. 1905. J. W. ArbUckle, Notary Public for Black Hawk Counly, la. Litchfield, Nebraska, Sept. 25ih. UL'. Sophia tJreen being tirst duly sworn, deposes and says she is the widow of Charles Greer, , deceased, who was killed in the summer* of UW5 by the breaking of a cream separator, near Litchfield, Nebraska. I offered to settle with , the manufacturers of the Separator for One | Hundred and Fifty Dollars before I saw John i Jlathewson about the matter and the Company ! afterward payed me Three Hundred and Fifty Dollars and the extra Two Hundred Doila.s was obtained for me entirely through the efforts of said John Mathewson. Mr. Mathew son did not charge* nor did he get anything for obtaining this money for me. Mr. Mathewson was a neighbor, and his efforts were made a- a neighborly act to help mejout in the loss of my husband and my destitute condition. Sophia Green.
