January, 1871, became acquainted with
TiltOn At his Office, where | went with Mrs,
Woodruff; was told that was his office;
my impression is that she told me so; |
do not remember where this Office was,
but you went up aight OF long narrow
stairs, where there were two rooms; went
there second time and met MOulton
there; ! could not say II the Office resembled
an editorial sanctum, but there were
papers strewn around and massive pic
ture hanging on the wall; Miss ClaAin
went to see MonltOh there on some law
business; Mrs. Woodhulps familiarity
with Tilton ripened very rapidly after my
acquaintance with himj these famiiiari-

when conversation'took place between
her and Tilton about the prospectus Of
the Golden Age; I was filling an order for
stockings when Mrs. Woodruff and TIL.
ton came In; on this occasion the sub
stance Of the language was that his paper
should take up the views Of the Spiritual
lists, and Mrs. Woodruff was to be at the
head Of the party; both papers were to be
used In this manner, and were 10 be the
organs Of the new party, My impression
Is that they were continuing cOnversa.
tiOn which they had began some time be.
fore. II was 10 be q consolidation Of all
the scattered spiritual parties and TiltOn
and Mrs Woodruff were 10 be leaders;
each paper was 10 admire the tenets Of
the other. Woodruff was talking very
earnestly on one occasion about scandal
with some person long before the prOOfs
were brought out, and Tilton came In and
said that this story about Beecher and his
wife was not tItpe.
Benjamin F. Tracy was the next wit.

gestion and the court adjourned.
