H. F. Talbot. Esq
Dear Sir
It appears to me that in the state of proceedings between you and Henderson you could not give in Evidence a disclaimer or altered specification that is a disclaimer or alteration made pending the proceedings The statute says that [no] disclaimer or alteration shall be received in Evidence which has been made pending the proceedings - Under these circumstances till I am better informed as to the exact state of the proceedings between you & Henderson I delay going to the Atty General
Yours very truly
