THEODORE TO VIC.

III 4NGW 1Oih
batch of letter written by Theodore
Tilton to Vic. Woodruff. There is
nothing especially naughty in the cor
respondence, yet the letters go quite
strongly to the impeachment of Til
toms testimony. 1t will be remem-
bered that Tilton testified that he en-
joyed but a meager acquaintanceship
with Woodruff and the other social re-
formers of the same ilk. The tender
missives given below will show that
the most familiar relation existed be-
tween them. Unquestionably, Theo-
dore gushed very decidedly for Vic.
Folio wing are his lettersas we find them
in the Herald:
FIFTH AVENUE HOTEL.
My DEAR VICroRIA-Put this under
your pillow, dream of the writer, and
peace be with you. Affectionately,
THEODORE TILToN.
THE GOLDEN AGE.
My DEAR VICToRIA-I have arranged
with Frank that you shall see Mr..
Beecher at my house on Friday night.
He will attend a meeting at the church
till ten O'Clock and will give you the
rest of abe evening as late as you de-
sire. You may consider this fixed.
Meanwhile, on this sunshiny day /
salute you with a goodmorning. Peace
be with you. Yours,
THEODORE Triton.
TUESDAY.
My DEAR VICroRIA-Emma is en-
pecting you at dinner this evening. 1t
will be a picnic trolic for the three of
us, held in the library, around the
center table, and graced with Franks
Burgundy.
/ will call for you in a carriage at your
office at a quarter past six o'clock.
You will stay all night at Emma's.
Do not fail TO be ready. Hastily,
GOLDEN AGE.
VICTORIA Il have a room tenn
porarily at the Fifth Avenue Hotel,
where / shall abide for a few days and
until Franks return.
l will ride up with you in your car
rage this afternoon at five o'clock.
If l don't call for you please call for
me. Hastily, Il. I.
THE GOLDEN AGE.
My FRIEND-I drop you a line,
hoping TO catch you with it before
you leave.
l am axious to see you again to-day,
if convenient to yourself. Can you
stop at my office on your way up
town? If so, at what hour will you
call :? Or if l should go down To your
office at five P. NJ, or later, would /
be interfering with your departure for
dinner?
My boy will bring me an answer.
Fraternally, THEo. Triton.
THE GOLDEN AGE.
My DEAR FRIEHD-I make haste
to say, while vet able to sit up (ior l
am giddy with faintness this morn
ing), that your wishes, so far as they
relate to my action, shall be faithful
ly fulfilled.
If no one else should remain to
honor you, /, who know you well
and believe i'm you utterly, will give
my honest witness that you are one
of the best and truest of human
souls.
Mrs. Hooker's letter, which / in
close, is no fuller of good will toward
YOU than your uprightness and sim
gleness of mind merit.
But l think the advice which she
gives concerning your n~on-accept-
ance of the committeeship, like Mrs.
Davis advice concerning your pos.
tive withdrawal, is not so good as the
suggestion with which l hereby ri.
place both-namely, that you abide in
your lot, neither wavering nor change
full, but like the apostle who said
Having done all. still to stand" ]
have no patience with any other pol
icy than justice and courage. l coun'
sci you against any appearance oil
surrendering to the approximations o
timid friends. But, then, | am not a
woman, and perhaps my advice Is
made of too stern a stuff.
Yon settled everything last ereninl
but the biography. Is it to go on o.
to stop?
And will you see Mr.. Beecher thi'
evening, as arranged? Yours ever,
Il. Il.
