@. Did you ever hear about it
A. Was never willing to have anything
to do with the matter. She added that
1ilton wanted her to treat
MoULToN AS MEDIATOR,
but she wanted to have nothing to do with
third party. She would be treated as
hitherto and if Beecher or any one else had
anything to say to her it should not come
through Moulton. Papers came to her
through him and she would not look at
them, Moulton one day insisted on read
ing her what he called very important
letter. which she had refused to receive and
it went In one ear and out the other, so
she remembered nothing of it except that
it urged her TO treat Moulton as a confldant
on the same common ground, which she re-
belled.
