MRS. DRAYroN's ANSWER

In the Divorce suit-she Dcnies Every
Allegation of Her Husband.
TRENTON, N. J., Oct. 3l.-The answer
in the James Coleman Drayton divorce
suit was fled at o'clock this afternoon.
Mrs. Drayton denies the charges OF
marital infidelity made by her husband
and accuses him OF having deserted her
without cause. The answer is filed in
her behalf by E. V. Lindabury, OF Eliza
beth.
Mrs. Drayton, in her answer, which is
brief, admits her marriage to her hus-
band in New York on October 20, 1879,
where they resided until 1856. Then
they removed to Bernardsville, n. j.,
where they continued to live until Oc-
tober !, 1891. After that they travelled
ia Europe until some time early in 1892.
She denies that she left her husband
while they were temporarily sojourn-
ing in London in January, 1892, but
that he Loft her through cruel and un-
lust suspicion as to her marital fidelity.
Mrs. Drayton makes specific denial
10 each and every allegation in her hus-
bands bill charging her with adultery
with with HaIIett AIsop Borrowo. and says
that she was never guilty of adultery
with Borrowe, or any other person
whatsoever, either in New York, Lon
don, Bernardsville or any other place.
"fhe charges" she says. "are wholly
untrue md a most cruel and unfoHnded
imputation."
On the contrary, she says. she has
always faithfully regarded her marriage
VOWS and has been true and faithful to
her VOWS as his wife.
