another chapter to a story OF real lie which cN
cmplifcs stronger than the Imagination of any
novelist ever did the power Of love on woman s
mind and the result of turning that love into

Emma l., Smith was married Ia a sfocl-prolcr

year or two hlrs. Murray found herself
widow at the age Of twenty-five
with $1,000 in cash in several savings

Murray returned home and it has continued until
