520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC.
Summary, etc This autobiography is now given in book form for gen eral circulation, in response to an insistent public de mand. The fact that such a Life had been written had no sooner become known than I was besieged by his per sonal friends and acquaintances, and by interested read ers of the published reports of the trial, for the publica tion of the autobiography prepared by Tom Horn. Let ters reached me by every mail from almost every state and territory of the Union; and I may be permitted here to state that there was scarcely a letter among them all which did not declare a belief in the innocence of Horn, after carefully considering the details of the case.

Telegrams and letters reached me, also, from daily newspapers, monthly magazines and publishing houses, making propositions for exclusive publishing rights.
