ment Of the cese, and stated that In all
the research for knowledge concerning
the transaction he had been investigating
honestly. As result he stated that he
believed, as much IA he could believe
anything which he did not see, that Peter
G. Albright signed that note.
Continuing the argument Mr.. Baldwin
stated that il was not necessary to show
that Mrs. Snyder and Albright were Grim
inalIy intimate, but it was shown that there
was sufficient for a consideration in this
case. "If Snyder believed that Albright
was intimate with his wife," said Mr..
Baldwin, land a settlement of any kind
was made, 1t was valid settlement. 1t
is not necessary that actual criminslity
should have occurred, but he had q valid
cause of action against him for ali snating
his wife's affections from him; for pois-
oning her mind against him; for inducing
her TO meet him; for the modification
and shame incident to the alienation of
affection"
For all these Mr.. Baldwin claimed that
Snyder would have had valid cause of
action for damages, and the consideration
would have been dee mad ample in any
court In the country. Mr.. Baldwin cited
numerous authorities to support his po>
sition concerning the consideration in
cases for damages.

receiving letters the same as Snyder
said Mr.. Baldwin. NJ care nothing o bout
that. They we're not investigated. This
was, and 1t was found to be true.n

Mr.. Baldwin referred to the malaria
medicine transaction in a caustic manner
and stated that II Albright had been solic'
itous for Mrs. Snyder's health, he need
not have talked with her In low tone, bu
might have proclaimed it TO the world.
