Hon. W. A. Graham,
Raleigh, N.C.
My dear Sir:-
I have your letter and affidavit of Sept. 22nd in regard to J. Conrad Smith. As there is no question of law involved in this case I have no authority under the law to pass upon it. If I had any jurisdiction I would be glad to do what I could for you.
Very truly yours,
Governor.
