THOSE LETTERS AGAIN.
Erwin Reads Them and Comments
Upon Them.


Upon Them.
The county attorney sought to turn
down all this testimony by simply ask
ing you: why didn't Miss Cling count
the money in the presence of BliXt?'
That is not enough to destroy all this
testimony by Miss Cling herself. Mr..
BliXt has laid his leprous hand on the
letters of Miss Kitty Cling. He has
covered her letter all over with slime
to keep your honest eyes from re-
garding them as her letters, but you
are bound by the testimony, and if
you cancel her letters out, you cannon
cancel out that testimony 1 have just
read to you. But this testimony l have
just read you contradicts Mr.. BliXts
theory, Mr.. BliXt'S whole story, and
the whole story of this prosecution.
There is no need of my taking those
letters out to show you at this late
hour. L will use copy in making my
remarks, because l have an accurate
copy. Now, without at this time dis
cussing the cause and condition of
these letters, let me call to your atten-
ton the substance of the letters. 1t is
the most profound libel on Kitty Cling
for BliXt to say that Harry made her
write him these letters. The let
tiers stand as part of the natural con-
dition of things from which they can
not be separated. The testimony of
the growth of the suspicion in Harry
l will come to later on. 1 want to call
your attention now to the substance
of Miss Ging'S letter.
Dear Friend Harry: Thinking tho
matter over after you left this morn
Ing, l cannot get that money now I'M
less use part of $1,000, and l don't see
why you want so much money as $4,000
now. When you loaned it to me you
said you wouldn't want it very soon,
so l have loaned it out, but [ think [
can get you $500 in a few days, and
that will certainly be all that you will
need at the Hot Springs. The first of
January [ will have all my money, and
then we can straighten everything up.
Hoping this will be satisfactory to you,
as ever, KATE GING.
Eleventh month 18th day of the
month, 1884,
To which Harry replied:
Miss Ging-Dear Friend Kate: like
your nerve telling me $500 will do me,
just like him on the witness stand?
81 like your nerve for telling me-" Just
exactly like him. 81 like you nerve
telling me $500 would do me when 1
wanted $1,000 You know very wei!
when / let you have the $1,000 it was
all the money l had, and you said you
would pay the other in a few days.
Now you deliberately turned around
and told me you have loaned it out
and cannot get it until Jan. l. Why
didn't you pay me the other day with
the money you were flashing around
in Barge's restaurant? Please look
this over and get the money before
long. / told you | would let you have
the $1,000 as long as you could pay the
interest on it. All the security | have,
or will have, will be a chattel mort
gage on the stock. L will stick to my
part of the bargain, SO please stick to
yours Sincerely,
HARRY HAYWARD.
And a note right after from Miss
Kate Cling:
Dear Friend Harry: You needn't lie
so mad about it. You can have the
money just as soon as L can get it,
Last Saturday l thought l could set
1T in few days. The money I had
the other day in the restaurant did not
belong to me. AS ever,
KATE GING.
May it please the court, it is going
to be impossible for me to finish this
argument tonight, but L will Try to DO
it in an hour in the morning
The court adjourned until this morn
ing at o'clock.
