BEECIIER-TILTON.
Nar. Bcechcr's Statement.

CONCLUDED.
cd documents and downright false
hoods. This paper know he read
to many. l am told that he read it
to not less than fifty persons, in
which he did not pretend to charge
immortality upon his wife. On the
contrary he explicitly denied it.,
and asserted her purity, but charg-
ed me with improper overtures to
her. 1t was this paper which he
read to DR.. Storrs, and poisoned
Herewith his mind, thus leading to
the attempt to prosecute Tilton in
Plymouth Church, the interference
of neighboring churches and the
calling of the Congregational Coun-
Gil.
After the Woodruff story was
published, and while Mr.. Tilton
seemed really desirous for short
time of protecting his wife, sent
through him the following letter to
her:
Here follows the letter before
published, sent by Beecher to Mrs.
Tilton after publication of the
Woodruff story.
The whole series of events be-
ginning with the outbreak of the
woodruff story repeatedly brought
me terrible accumulation of anx-
ieties and perils everything that
had threatened before now started
up again with new violence. Til
toms behavior was at once mex
plicable and unconsolable. His
card "To q Complaining Friend
did not produce the effect he pre-
tended to expect from it, of con-
vincing the public of his great
magnanimity. Then his infamou:
article and letter to Mr.. Bower
made its appearance in the Eagle
It had been suggested that the pub
lication of the tripartite covenant
would have good effect in coun
teracting the slanderous stories
about Mrs. Tilton and myself
which Theodore professed to re-
gard, but which his foolish care
and the publication of that article
had done so much to revive, ant
render mischevious.
Mr.. Moulton urged me to ge

tripartite covenant q copy of 1T FOL

FATE.

Why should man struggle carly, late,
When all he is is fixed by Fate
For everything that comes and goes,
Goes, comes at its appointed date.
The wind is measured "a il blows,
The grains of sand have each their weight,
Only the fool can say he chose
The woman that is now his mate
And 80 with friends and so with foes.
The rising and the falling state.
'Tis idle to support oppose,
To open or to shut the cato.
What is we see but no one knows
What was or will be, small or great.
Nothing is certain but the close,
And that is hid from us by Fate

Moulton's statement is fac anlle of
the letters said to have been wiitten to
him from Mr.. Beecher, Mrs. Morse, and
other persons. The document is long.
The Sun says the letters from Beechor
are not expected to add much to the tes-
timony against him. One is note in
closing check, and directing Moulton
10 use it his discretion.
Another is friendly note making an
appointment. In it Mr.. Beecher sends
his love 10 Mrs. Emma Moulton, and
writes how dreadfully near the point she
speaks sometimes. One letter from Mrs.
Morse is produced, in which she address
ses Mr.. Beecher az "My dear son." and
asks him to help her pay her rent and
provide for herself through the winter
'Bhe refers to Beecher's secret, and says
only six persons know it. She writes of
EliSabeth's home troubles, and thanks
Beecher for the deep consolation he af-
fords her daughter. The letter closes,
"Do you know i think il very strange
that you should ask me to cali you my
.bon?"
A letter dated July 2S, 1874, is to be
produced, and by it Moulton intends to
show that, up to that date, Beecher had
not felt harshly toward him, even though
he had paid seven thousand dollars black
mail The letter begins "My dear Frank"
and closes, Yours, gratefully, II. w. b."
The Herald summarizes Moulton's state
ment thus:
Hrst-He shows that he did render ef
ticient counsel and aid to Beecher after
the publication of the Bacon letter, and
averring in this respect. q willful false
hood.
Second-That he was not a blackmailer.
and that Beecher was a blackmailer in
that he availed himself of the power
which Tilton had over Mrs. Bowen to
oxtort, through Mr.. Clahin from Mr..
Bowen a certificate of character.
Third-That the devices to which he
resorted were Beecher's own suggestions,
and made in an effort to help and save
Beecher.
Fourth-He gives specifically in words
the justification which Beecher gave to
him for his adultery with Mrs. TiltOn,
namely this: that this physical expression
OF love was as natural as the words of en-
dearment he used towards her. This,
MoultOn says, was the first enunciation
of the doctrine of free love he had heard.
and it, therefore, became deeply inn
pressed OIL his memory.
Eifth-That when he read to Beecher
from the letter of Tilton to Bowen the
charge of rape made by Bowen, that
Beecher deemed it necessary to tell him
the truth with reference to the woman
who was mentioned by Bowen. Beecher
Hays: "Ididn't commit rape. Itistrue
! had intercourse with the woman"
houlton said; IF You are on friendly
lerms, you had better have a retraction,
slse you may be at Bowen's Mercy
