II. Allou again outraged every sentiment of hu-
manity by exultng over the vigilance of the port
officers, who, lin 1904, prevented Mrs. Jerome Bona
parte from landing on French soil, and thus pre-
vented her from being born a French citizen.
According to his own statement OF the case, Mrs.
Bonaparte, who was near her accouchment, and
naturally dreaded such event at sea, tried to
land at several French ports, but the minions of
the Emperor had their orders to keep her out at
sea at all hazai ds, and this inhuman order they ac
complished so well that she was obliged finally
to take refuge in England This incident in the
history, one would suppose, tue defence would not
have referred to. The facts brought out on this
trial show it to have been, from beginning to end,
one of the most moving dramas of which history
affords any example.
The general opinion is that the American Bona
parties will lose their case first, because they could
not gain it without causing sort of revolution in
| the private relations of the imperial family; and
| secondly, because they have found very formida-
| BILE adversary in NJ. Allou, who was no less elo
| quent than NJ. Berryer. 1t is deemed especially
! important to show want of good faith in the Pat
terson family, by proving by the correspondence o
| NJ. Peihon, formerly French Minister at Washing
ton, that the family had been informed of the lille
| gality of the marriage which Jerome Bonaparte
| was about contracting, and that although admOni
tions to this effect were repeatedly given, no at
| tenton was paid to them. The provision for the
rupture of the marriage which to be found in the
contract ITSELF has furnished argument tt
| NJ Allou, who also found a third, which, i
not so forcible, was at least more
cruel in the will of Mr.. Patterson. The father o
Mrs. Elizabeth Patterson reproaches his daughte
with cher spirit of disobedience, her giddiness AM
her folly" After having thus made the fathe
bear testimony from the depths of his gray
against his daughter, the counsel of Prince Ma
poeon said:
Gentlemen:-There is an expression attribute
to Miss Patterson: "If L can be his wife but fo
twenty.four hours, I'll take the risk" | do nc
know II there is any truth in this story, but it
surely the essence of the correspondence referrin
to the contract of marriage and of the will,
The decision will probably be delayed for weel
and is waited for by the Americans in Paris wit
lively impatience.
