MRS. ATKINSON TESTIFIES.
Wife Of West virg,nia's Governor Charged
with Forgery.

The examination in chief of Mrs.
Atkinson, wife Of the governor Of
West Virginia, who is charged with
forgery, and whose trial has been 10
progress for some days at Chenille,
Va, was placed on the stand in her
own behalf Tuesday night. She re-
counted the history of her life.
She was married to Judge Camden
IN 1888, and up to the time of his
death, he required her constant care
and attention. She stated that during
nll this time she had assisted him in
the transaction OF his business and es-
pecially had she been of efficient SER
vice To him in q clerical way. She had
written letters, papers and receipts FOR
him, and had signed his name to them
with her own underneath, but always
with his authority and at his dictation
She denied in toto the material allegi-
tions of the state and said emphatical-
ly that she had never signed Judge
Camden's name to any papers after his
death.
All receipts and papers produced by
the prosecution and filed as evidence
in this case and which bear the sigma
ture Sc. d. Camden, per Mrs. G.. d.
Camden" were written and signed
prior TO the death of Judge Camden
and with his consent, by his authority
and by his directions. She pronounced
the Owens receipts, which in this case
she is charged with forging, as genu-
inc and written by her under the di-
rection Of Judge Camden.
The court has been in session about
ten hours each day since the opening
! of the case.
