“ My impression about the matter is that Judge Krum and I bad agreed on $6,500, and I went to Grumley to see whether he would agree to it, and then the papers were drawn up. That is my impression merely. I got the papers; got them from Judge Krum, I think; think Judge Krum gave me the check. I have no recollection of any one being present when Judge Krum and I had anything to do with this^case. No one was with Grumley when he came to my office on the day of the settlement. I don’t know of Grumley’s ever taking the matter into his own hands at all. If he did, I did not know it. I don’t recollect of Judge Krum ever telling me that he had settled with Grumley. If there was any negotiation between the parties, I never heard of it.. Don’t know that Grumley was aware that 1 was settling the $7,000 suit, and that Webb was to pay the costs. Had I told Grumley to take $3,000 for his judgment, I am satisfied he would'have done it. The judgment is the only thing Ire-collect talking to Grumley about. I can not give any satisfactory explanation of how I came to settle the $7,000 suit.” I will now in like manner refer to the testimony of Krum: TESTIMONY OS’ KRUM ON FIRST TRIAL.
