TEE LETTERS SHOWN,
Tae Brecklnridge-P Pollard
Growing Interesting.
Case

WASHINGTON, D. c., March 90
"Miss Pollard, when ala YOU first
meet Mrs. Blackburn" was the
first question asked by Exon
gresham Benjamin Butterworth
today, OF tho plaintiff in the Pol
lard Breckingridge breach of
promise suit. Miss Pol
lard said she had met the
widow Of the Ex-Governor OF
Kentucky, in the winter of 1890,
when she Miss Pollard) was stop
ping in Washington with Mrs.
Fillette. Mrs. Blackburn had call
ed at the house and the hostess
had presented them. Next a let.
ter was handed to the plaintiff
which she said had been
written by her to her protec-
tor, Mr.. Rhodes. Miss Pollard
looked at 1t and asked why the
heading was torn off. Her counsel
cautioned her not to ask Ques-
tions. The letter was dated Lex
ington, November ~, 1884. and
asked for $40 to pay her board, and
it conveyed the information that
the person it was addressed
to could "Come on Sntur.
day evening and enjoy q
pleasant time" The letter was
signed: "YOurs truly, Madaline."
Another letter dated Nov. 81, and
written to Rhodes, said the writer
twas worried and disappointed and
felt certain that you could get that
tonight" AS the writer was
sure man, with as many
rich friends, could get 1t, es-
pecially SO near pay day.
Again the writer says: "You can
come on Saturday afternoon at 3
o'clock and no one will be here,
though the girls may come in any
time" Again the writer says:
abe sure and come in the afternoon
for Miss Bellies friend may
come in the evening"" This
is also signed MADELINE"
Other letters were identified and
read. One dated February, 1885,
spoke OF her disappointment at not
having received another remit
lance from him. She said she
would expect him tomorrow night,
and would never get over it II she
did not hear from him with
what she asked for, as sine had
been expecting it so long, and
needed it SO much, and told him
not to come until he brought 1t,
and said she could not understand
tho delay, as payday was two days
past. This was just before Miss
Pollard was going away for the
birth Of her first child.

never be run by water-power, 1t
should be recalled that the electric
lighting OF Honolulus streets by

less and, although probably the
whole city's machinery will never b"
