I listened to him. He said that if I
went with him on the stage should
have to marry him. He explained that
it was only form. He knew perfectly
well that it was a marriage of con-
venience and I was led to believe that
he was sincere in his desire to aid me
in my stage aspirations. He asked me
if I was game and said yes. At
o'clock Saturday I met him and we
went over to JeffersOnville and were
married. I left him at o'clock, Joined
my friends at dinner and did not see
Cohn again until the next night, five
minutes before my train left for St.
