This afternoon as he followed her

TO be shipped to her old home in
Maine, he declared to a friend that
Melissa was as much his wife in the
sight Of God as ever.
Mr.. and Mrs Goodwin quarreled
nearly d year ago and separation
and divorce proceedings followed. She
hired a room at 81 Division street and
worked in n department store for a
time. Her family in Maine did not
hear from her frequently and recently
her brother. John N. Martin. promi-
nent business man in Pittsfield, and
Mrs. Goddwin's sister came here and
found her i'll and suffering from priva-

from whom her divorce had been
granted by that time. The result was
q reunion of Mr. and Mrs. Goodwin at
her bedside. From that time Mrs.
Goodwin had no more devoted attend

over again expressed his regard for
her.

that she kept the real circumstances
