mission, and don't know that even then
it would be best" Mr.. Beecher explains
that it was because Mr.. Tilton
had sent him word forbidding him
to ever enter his house again. Mr..
b. knew he had frequently wished he
was dead, and so had Messrs. Tilton and
Moulton used the same expression in his
presence, because of the troubles and
perplexities in which they were mixed
up. As to the expression in enc of his
(keecher's) letters to Mr. Moulton that
he (Tilton) had condoned his wife's
fault" Mr.. B. said "Condoned has
legal meaning and a general meaning;
but l used the word as a literary
man would use it, not as lawyer.
If ] had used it in legal phrase
the word would have been oflense,
not FAULT By the word ''fault" he
referred to the complaints Tilton made
in general in respect to his wife, the i'm
preston conveyed to him (Beecher) from
beginning to end being that he was
charged with having taken advantage of
the simplicity of Mrs. Tilton to steal her
affection to himself and away from her
husband. As to the statement that Mr..
Tilton had enjoined him Dot to betray
his wife, Mr. b. said it meant "not to be-
tray tniS WHOle uilHCuliy IHto WHICH HIS
household had been cast In reply to
question as to what were his ideas on
the free-love question, Mr.. Beecher
stated that he abhorred every manifesto
ton of the free-love doctrine that he had
seen in theory, and abhorred every advo-
cate of the free-love doctrine that he had
known He had never met the Wood
hulls more than three times in his life.
In the further course of the cross-exam-
ination Mr.. Beecher testified TO having
paid to Mr.. Tilton, through Mr..
Moulton, in the way of contributions,
sums amounting to some 81 1000 A pay
ment of S., 900 in one sum was made by
him because it had been represented to
him that the whole difficulty could be
settled by that amount of money, which
would put the affairs of the Golden Age
on a secure footing; that they would be
able to go right on, and that with the
going on of them the safety of Tilton
would be assured, and that would be u
settlement Of the whole thing; it was to
save Tilton pecuniarily.
