over and threw her down and around unit
she got away and went out from the room
He didn't kick me out that time. She di
not exasperate him by her talking, but ofte
kept from talking for hours rather than Civ
him an excuse for anger. On tho occasion
when Harry wouldn't kiss him, and he be
came angry at mother about it, and wa
shaking her, went to them, and that wa
the time he kicked me out of the front door
I went round to the side of the house
and asked mother if should
go for some one and she said yes, if he KEEP
on; did not go, but came In and went uI
stairs; it was then he cut up the tidy was
working; he did not afterwards pay me fol
it. On another occasion heard him throw
her against door; 1 did not then go to
their room, but staid in mine that afternoon
heard what they were saying, but can only
state the substance of it; substantially what
| heard was that he accused her of being
untrue to him; he said he knew it was 80;
know he had his hand on her throat at that
time. as she said. Her department with
gentlemen was nothing but proper; l never
knew anyone who cared less for gentlemen's
company; she saw but few at our house;
they were mostly my friends, or gentlemen
who came to call on me. She kept house
well; she was very Industrious; always i'm
proving every hour. At the time of the
table upsetting, he came home at o'clock
it was in summer-and expected dinner; we
had given him up, supposing he wasn't COM
ing; was up stairs where heard great
crash; went down and found the table up
set and everything on it, as it had been
waiting for him, on the floor. I do not
ink it was safe for her to stay in the house
with him. do not think she would have
lived two months longer if she had stayed
there.
Mrs. Huddleston, in answer to Judge ST.
mons-There has not been an agreement be-
tween the plaintiff and I, that he should not
appear on this point.
Miss Huddleston, in answer to the Judge
do not know of such an agreement being
made.
Mr.. Clough-l think can assure your
Honor that no such agreement has been
made.
Judge Simons, desiring that the evidence
should be corroborated, a recess was had
while other witnesses were sent for.
After the recess, Mrs. II. r. Hollinshead
testified to her acquaintance with Mrs. Hud-
dleston and her knowledge of the Huddles-
ton family troubles. AS to any violent out
breaks she only knew of them from hearsay;
but she observed that MIR. Huddleston's man
ner was not affectionate toward his wife; it
was domineering and disagreeable. Mrs.
Huddleston always seemed depressed saw
her soon after the occasion of hair-puling
described in the complaint; saw the mark on
her temple; she made no remark about it,
but she was unhappy. When Mrs. Huddles-
ton first came to st. Paul she was picture
of robust health; saw that she was growing
thinner, and last summer noticed a great
change in her. About week before she
left her home met her on the street, and was
frightened at her appearance-she was so
white. Was anxious and unhappy about
her; was afraid he would kill her. Do
not think it would have been safe for her to
stay with him. She was perfect house
keeper, and took good care of the children
and their clothes.
MISS MATILDA JOHNSON
was In the employ of Mr.. and Mrs. Huddlss-
ton in 1877. She seemed afraid of him; he
after threatened to knock her down or kick
her cut. One day about Christmas, heard
scream; went to the stairs and met Mrs. II.
and the children, she was very pale and
frightened; the children said their papa had
thrown glass of ale in their mama's face
and hurt her; her face was wet with the ale.
She always seemed afraid of him;
when he came home she would ask
how he was, and if 1 said
he was cross she would seem afraid. He Of
ten came home late; have heard him coming
in when was getting up in the morning.
Whav, T hiro Iata ha
intoxicated; have heard him get the whisky
Once, when came from kindling the kitchen
chair; I thought he might be dead, and
to him he had better 60 up stairs and 60 to
bed, and he got up, mumbling something,
and went up stairs. Sac always saw that
of the children.
A decree of divorce, which had been pre-
pared, was now submitted to the court, and
also deed of trust, providing for division
of the property, which allots to Mrs.
Huddleston and her children the home
stead, No. 254 Exchange street, and
the household goods and furniture, with
5000 in cash. Accompanying the deed of
trust Mr.. Clough, for defendant, deposited
with the court certified checks for 5000. He
wished the plaintiff to sign the deed of
trust. The judge hesitated, wishing first to
be assured the statute provisions were COM
piled with in the form of the deed, but on
the assurance of Mr.. Clough, assented to by
Mr.. Pierce, that he had freshly examined the
statute and drawn the deed accordingly, she
wass permitted to complete the deed, leaving
upon deposit with the court.
Mr.. Pierce suggested the Importance of
early action, as the allowance to Mrs. Hud-
dleston for her support at the hotel expired
with the day.
Judge Simons to Mr.. Clough-Am to I'M
derstand this hearing to day was by arrange
ment of the parties?
Mr.. Clough-Yes, we agree to the deed of
trust, but there is no further agreement.
The judge holds the papers under advise
ment.
