Sir Charles { Ssi!kr.

At the conclusion Of Sir Charles Dilke's
notes cn the Crawford case he suggests
that Mrs. Crawfor9's aninus was revenge,
because Mrs. Ashton Dixie thraw on him
the detection Of her Intimacy with Forster.
Mrs. Ashton Dixie was also inimical to
Lady Dixie, who had ordered her out of
the house at Chelsea on account of her Ian.
guage concerning her sister. Strenuous
efforts have been made to conceal the meet
lngs of Mrs. Crawford and Forster in . Hill
street brothel, but it is certain they met al
most daily. The worst part Of DIrs. Craw-
fords story probably refers to incidents in
her Hill street career" Referring to Fanny
he says it is not difficult t. find her but he
cannot induce her to give evidence, % she
fears that she would be obliged to state
publicly what happened to her in cue short
moment Of her life but sho mas slated to de-
tectives that she has never seen Mrs. Craw.
ford since the trial, Mrs. Rogerson stated
that Mrs. Crawford'a confession to her re-
gardng Dixie WAS accompanied by f. series
OF statements involving ether men, some OF
which could not possibly be true The oa-
Ject OF Dilkes notes is TO prepare the way
for his return 10 public life. 4 large num-
of the Chelsea electors continue 10 be.
)ievc in bis innocence.
