The Stark County Democrat. [volume] (Canton, Ohio) 1833-1912, 1899-05-04

Yesterday did not realize that was
free. 1t all seemed SO strange to me"
paid Mrs. Anna e. George this morning.
She had been with her attorneys, Mr..
welty ard Mr.. Sterling in Mr.. Sterling's
Office, and had been talking with them
about her future. 1t is evident that she
feels that she is practically alone in the
world, and that she values the counsel
and advice Of the two men who did so
much to bring about her acquittal, is
patent. She will not go to her mothers
home in Hanoverton for day or two,
and will remain in Canton over Sunday.
To a News Dem ocrat man she said;
"I have not decided what to do or
where will make my home. 1 must
first work before. I have home. 1 have
had none for some years, and 1 have
none of my own now. 1 am considering
several offers, and may accept ore of
them. l have been getting great many
telegrams and letters ard many kind
words from my friends and also from a
great many persons whom 1 do not
know. They are all of ngratulatory
character"
care you going to remain in Canton
longp" was asked.
"No; shall go to Hanoverton Mon
day or Tuesday. must get my goods
together, and it will take me some little
time to pack up. have some work to
attend to before go, so do not think
will get started before Tuesday"
care you going to church tomorrow"
"I do not know. 1 should like to go
to the First M. .E. church and hear DR..
Manchester's sermon. Still, I do not
want to make myself prominent in any
way. have had prominence enough.
If should go to q public place some of
my enemies might put wrong construc-
ton on it, and do not want to give
them an opportunity to criticise me-"
Mrs. George has purposely avoided 60
ing through the business district, as she
does not care to parade herself. She took
walk this morning as she feels the mead
| of fresh air after her long confinement.
She walked up North Market street for
some distance. She was accompanied by
Mr.. and Mrs. McElvaine.
A telegram was received last night
from Madam Blanchard of Pittsburg,
Offering her $500 to deliver a lecture
in that city on "Woman's Rights" Mrs.
George has never done any thing of that
kind, but she could get up fair sort
of q speech and sandwich In some his
tory of her life and make very inter
esting talk. 1t is likely that she will
decide to do that but she will not un-
dertske any work that will tend to
lower her. She purposes to be worthy
Of what her friends think of her, and
says she will take great pleasure In
disappoiI ting her enemies. She has the
lecture program under advisement 1t
does not follow that she will accept
the offer of Madam Blanchard. There
are other bureaus. She may make trip
east and lecture, though that is prob
lematical.
Last night the following telegram
came to Mrs. George:
Columbus, April aS.
Mrs. Anna f. George, Canton, Ohio.
will pay you $500 for next week in
drama. Wire answer and will send
particulars.
II. WALTER vANDYKE,
Manager Board Of Trade Auditorium.
Not satisfied to wait for an answer,
Mr.. Vandyke jumped train and ar
rived in Canton this morning. He had
long conference with Mrs. George
and her attorneys. The offer was bon
aide, and oil that was required Of Mrs.
George was to make ten minutes talk
at the theater each night. That she
felt confident she could do, but Is ad-
