had said about being obliged to with
draw her protection from Miss Pollard
unless they were more discreet in their
conduct.

I cannot remember my exact words
OF conversation after few weeks.u
The colonel was sure that Mrs. Black
burn had not told him that she had
told Miss Pollard that II his attentions

Il am sure Mrs. Blackburn did not
use such an offensive word IN her own
parlor to a visitor. Mrs Blackburn
was a lady have known for years and
us hostess she would not have said
such thing"
Mr. Wilson underworld TO pin down
the colonel to denial OF the state
ment that he had told Mrs Black
burn he had no love for another wom-

cured the answer; Il am sure that no
such conversation occurred"
