by Henry Pelham to Elihu Hall &C
Salem, Mass, reminding him of his sud-
den departure from Boston. on his way
10 England, without having paid for the
portrait of himself which Pelham had
painted. This letter had been sent I'M

and was never delivered, probably be-
cause Mr.. Hall had already left our
shores.
This letter was one of a number OF
family papers once belonging to the
peIhams and Bromfields, and was con-
tributed by benson Rogers Slade, who
broke the seal. Among the new facts
brought out by these papers are the
date of the death of Mrs. Peter Pei
ham, the mother of John Singleton
Copley, and the fact that Henry Pei
ham, his half brother, was established
rs a portrait painter in Boston as early
as IVA.
Mr.. Slade expressed the opinion that

tofore been regarded as late Smiberts
or early Copleys were in reality the
work of Henry Pelham.

La BeIIe Frieda Thus Wins Her Case

For the first time in history girl
won her case in Massachusetts court

Certain BOstonians had felt that n
dancing exhibition in n western resort
was scandalous and invited the aid OF
the Watch and Ward society to close il
up. A raid was made and La Belle
Frieda and Phil Pamberg. the couchee-
coucbee dancers, were arrested. When
arraigned in court before Judge Ely
their counsel proposed as defense
correct exhibition of the couchee-
couchee and the judge adjourned court
TO the lobby to witness it.
Frieda retired to a juryroom and put
on her tights and then appeared and
danced. His honor followed her every
movement closely from start to finish,
Then Pamberg danced. but he lid not
cut much ice in the judicial mind after
the girl.
After the show Judge Fly dwelt on
dancing generally and said he did not
see anything criminal in the couchee-
couchee and he ordered the respondent
discharged. II was a gay day in Bos-

CHAPTER ~,

All that night | walked the floor,
cudgeling my brains over the sFair,
but could arrive at no satisfactory So
luton. 1t seemed impossible that the
vault should have been opened, and the
currency, the bulk of which would more
than fill bushel basket, distracted.
The fact remained, however, that il was
gone.
On my way down TO the bank the fol-
lowing morning, l bought some news
papers, and eagerly read all the ac-
counts. Every paper, without actually
stating the facts in SO many words,
gave out strong hints that was some
how connected with the affair. l no.
ticed. also, that passers-by looked
around after me. Many men with whom

their heads and pretended not to see
me. | realized in great bitterness of
spirit that / was already a marked man,

1t is a lamentable fact that often a
suspicion of a man runs through the
general public without any just reason.
The current in such an event is over
whelming. and il is useless TO try to
stem il, as soon realized.
When entered the lobby on my way
to Mr.. Perry's private Office, | was fa-
vored by having the curious glances of
my former associates thrown at me,
but only one Of them extended TO me
"a salutation. That one was Horace
