  Suppose $G$ is a 1-ended finitely generated group that is hyperbolic relative
to P a finite collection of 1-ended finitely generated subgroups. Our main
theorem states that if the boundary $\partial (G, P)$ has no cut point, then
$G$ has semistable fundamental group at $\infty$. Under mild conditions on $G$
and the members of P the 1-ended hypotheses and the no cut point condition can
be eliminated to obtain the same semistability conclusion. We give an example
that shows our main result is somewhat optimal. Finally, we improve a "double
dagge" result of F. Dahmani and D. Groves.
