her family went to reside in Bedford
square. Brighton. Her husband used
to go there from time to time. When he
was not there a strange gentleman was
a constant visitor. Mrs. Dawson, who
kept the house. and two servants would
tell the jury who the stranger was, and
prove that the pair were sometimes
locked III Mrs. O'Shea's bed room to-
gether. At another house Parnell also
visited the respondent. He was careful
always to keep out of the way OF O'Shea,
escaping by way of back balcony TO
avoid the captain, and afterwards going
to the front OF the house and presenting
himself as having just arrived. O'Shea
went abroad i'll, and during his absence
Parnell lived at Ethan. Rumors
reached O'Shea about his wife
and Parnell, and he wrote to Mrs.
O'Shea for all explanation. He
also wrote to Parnell, saying:
You have behaved very badly to cause
scandal by your continued visits.''
To this Parnell replied:
81 don't know OF any reason or any cause
for scandal
Mrs. O'Shea also wrote to her hus-
band, pointing out that the chi!dren's
chance for inheritlng the property of
their aunt, Mrs. Wood. would be dam
aged by a scandal. This occurred in
1884. O'Shea's suspicious were lulled
asleep, and the pair seemed very conf
dent as to what they could do at Ethan.
In 1885, three horses, "President'"
Dictator" and Home Rule" we're
bought. The first was Parnell's hack,
the second was the respondents, and
the last was an old hack for common
nse-'about the fate of which," added
Sir Edward, with malicious humOr, 81
don't know anything" After that
new room was built for Parnell with
access to the respondents room. In
1856 paragraph in the papers des-
crlbed carriage accident that happened
to Parnell at Ethan. O'Shea saw the
paragraph and telegraphed to his wife
asking her its meaning. Her reply,
which was couched in affectionate
terms. said:
Il haven't the slightest idea of what it
means, unless it is intended to get rise out
OF YOU IL has been made up by Healy and
company. 1t is better not to retaliate, for it
is as lighting with sweep-yOu are sure to
get dirty
She also sent her husband a letter
which she alleged she had received from
Parnell. which was false and invented.
That letter was cOncOcted purely for
the purpose of being shown to O'Shea.
In it Parnell wrote that he had a couple
of horses at Bexley out at grass, and
that he was sorry if any annoyance had
been caused by the paragraph. 1t
would be shown that Parnell slept at
Ethan that night. He was i'm a
brougham when the accident oc-
CURED. Afterwards the respondent and
Parnell went to the stables and
removed the horses and harness
lest O'Shea should come home and see
them. Sir Edward next told of scene
that occurred at Carlsbad while O'Shea
was staying there. A lady who was
reading paper began to read para
graph i'll which O'Shea's name ap-
peared. when suddenly she stammered
and was unable to proceed, and every
body, of course, became curious. The
paragraph referred to the immoral re-
lations of the respondent and Parnell
during the absence of her husband.
O'Shea wrote to his wife mentioning
the incident, and telling how the paper
narrated the story of Parnell's Subur-
ban retreat with his Aspasia at Ethan,
and how he had put the best face on
things by eXclaiming against the intro
duction of the worst features of Ameri
can politics into English public life.
Sir Edward here read series of letters
which passed between O'Shea and his
wife respecting the terms of the ar
rangement they desired to make for the
Sake of Their Children.
O'Shea advised his wife to consult
her hgothers, Sir Evelyn Wood and
