went in search of "Don," or Harry Cam
eron and his brother. both bosom friends
OF DIR. Pyle when he was ut the universi-
ty. AT DIR. Biddle's drug store, on Market
near Thirty-fourth street. learned that
Don Cameron had gone to Marviand aud
his brother was a physician at German
town. Druggist Biddle said he remem-
bered Pyle very well and that he and the
two Camerons used to make his store
sort of headquarters. He did not know
Annie Jones. but he remembered that
Pyle and the Camerons did often discuss
the relative merits Of some young
woman.
DON SENDS REGARDS.
In the letter published in The SUNDAY
MORNING NEWS over the signature of w.
l.. Pyle, which Annie says was written
by the doctor and the physician pro-
nounces forgery, the writer says:-"My
friend Don says, Send my best regards,
though have no doubt he feels little
sore over last last night" l immedl.iately
Cameron who had gone to Maryland, and
regretted ! had not the time to follow
him. Whoever wrote that letter, | be-
lieve, must have known DR.. Pyle's in
innate friends.
From the doctors went in search of
sisters. tried to find Mary or Mamie, as
she is better known. Annie Jones said
her sister was present at the house when
DIR. Pyle committed the malpractice on
her. / wanted to obtain Mary's confirma-
tion or denial Of tho story. After n
wearisone search finally found Mamie's
sweetheart and endeavored to learn her
whereabouts from him. The sweetheart
is plumber. His name is Howard
Palmer, and his shop is beneath the real
estate office Of Goldbeck & Co, Lancaster
avenue, above Forty-second street.
Palmer was at work on u job on Haver-
ford street. When | asked him where
Mary was he told me he did not know
her. When l convinced him he did, he
said he did not know where she was
Several beers judiciously applied enlight-
ened his memory considerably, and he be-
came confidential finally. He said he
knew Annie and Mary, and then told me
that Annie had told him of the wrong
she claims DR.. Pyle had done her.
ANNIE'S SISTERS SWEETHEART.
"You see, :" said he, Il don't want to get
mixed up in the matter, but II it is neces-
sary to help Mary | will come to the
front. Annie amt nothing to me, no
how. but she's Mary's sister. Annie just
loved that Pyle, and by Cd I would just
like to have him here now" After Palmer
viewed his big fist compfacently he con-
tinued his story.
He told me exactly the same story
Annie Jones told THE SUNDAY MORNING
NEWS, and knowing that he could no
possibly have seen that paper before j
saw him, thought his story added much
weight to Annie's. Palmer said he did
not know Pyle, but that Annie had told
him all about MIN. Palmer refused abso-
lutely to tell me where the sister lived.
but he said he had received a letter from
her that day which stated she had gone
to Coatesville.
When asked him If Mamie was not
connected with theatre In minor part
he first said she was, then declared he
did not know, and finally informed me
that be would not tell me. for he did not
want her to get in trouble and did not
want to be involved himself. He stuck
TO this and l left him.
From other sources learned that both
Annie and Mamie Jones were known to
many people in West Philadelphia. but
did not find one who could tell me
where Mamie lived. and l did not find
one who said an unkind word of either
girl
Those with whom / talked all said they
knew nothing derogatory to their char
acter. About month ago Mary Jones
lived as waiting maid at Thirty
street and Carlton avenue, but she left
there without saying where she was go
ing.
