Mr.. Beecher spoke Of his relations and thera
stopped and changed into sexual relation.
with Mrs. Tilton. 1t il perfectly clear hat
these changes were made for the purpose el
inserting something unnatural, with the
view to the conviction Of Mr.. B.eche-
The language, /" The tortures of the damn
ed" is copied plainly from his letter d.
Feb. s, 1874 the continued advice to 70 q,
the church Immediately and tell ali tn,
truth, given day after Moulton had -
strongly dissuaded him from publishing aay-
thing, and two days after Tilton had threa.
ened to shoot Beecher if he did tell the
truth; the allusion to the card in the tGgl.
as thing he was considering, bat which be
thought useless, when in fact the card VII,
already in type in the Edglc Office. a M.l'
ton has himself shown the unutterabie al
sardity of Beecher's announcement that he
would never see her again and would pJ,s,,
himself, followed by his conclusion u D..
pone his death one day for the sake Of -.
ing certain JuementOes 70 his friends, the
are inherent absurdities enough to c0n!en.
this story. But | shall have something u..-.
decisive to say upon the subject of this ..

however, desire you to observe that NJ
Moulton's account of the interview Of = d.
10, 1874. contains internal evidence OF -..-
untruth. will only call your attention
one point. Mrs. Moulton accuses her-el
using this unlady-like expression b. Ii 80.

better off I; now you have the original cra.
and four years Of perjury and lying To at
swer fol" Gentlemen. YOU have seen t-
yourself that Mrs. Moulton was rat4-s
lady you know and | know that -ie .,.
the manner Of lady she could D. Del .s.
have made that coarse and vulgar speech
her pastor at that time than she could d..
cut off her hand Nor could 81. have la
even the idea of perjury in her min -
Mr.. Bescher had never taken an oath r-
said a word in public except in bis ir
card of June 50, 1874. Bat the ciia.z g..

responding TO this insult, Sc loU az s.s-.-

Again the account which Mrs. N.-l-
gives of her interview with Mrs. tr. IL,
