shortly after her marriage of the in
fatuation of her sister for her hus-
band. OF a. mild. timid character, she
found herself unable to cope with
the headstrong, tyrannical disposition
of Agnes, who threatened time and
again to commit suicide when spoken
to about her relations with Collins
Collins, whose powers of fascina-
ton seem to have made slave of
Charlotte, succeeded in inducing her
to remain quiet after she found that
Agnes was about to give birth to a
child of whom Collins acknowledged
the paternity.
Agnes frequently posed as Mrs.
Collins in public, declaring to her
brother and sisters that she and not
Charlotte should have been the wife
of Collins. When her child was born
II was taken by Charlotte and raised
as her own, Charlotta's children look
ing upon it as their sister And all
through this Charlotte kept silence
a silence induced, she claims. by the
great love she bore for her husband,
her children and even for her erring
sister.
Then, after 10 years, came the
death of little Susan, Agnes child
Diphtheria was the cause. Agnes,
WHO Was again about to become a
mother, caught the disease from Su-
san, and died in childbirth.
1t was at this time that the most
complex features of the whole case
come into prominence.
For three months prior to the death
of Agnes no one save Collins and
Charlotte saw her. She was living at
the California hotel at the time with
Collins, Charlotte and the children.
Agnes was kept in her room. Char
lotta claims, in order to prevent the
public from becoming aware of her
condition
The Newman family now aver that
Collins laid the foundation al this
time of the scheme to rid himself of
his connection with their family. His
financial position having greatly i'm
proved since his marriage to Char
lotta, he had the money to entertain
lavlshly and he used this means to

gave him the opportunity and he lost
no time in perfecting the scheme
which suggested itself.
Attending himself to all the details
connected with the recording of Ag-
nes' death, he took the preliminary
step toward disclaiming Charlotte rs
his wife.
AS Agnes M. Collins, wife of
George ID. Collins" he entered the
record of the woman's death. The
cause of death was given as diph-
iberia and exhaustion following pre-
mature childbirth.
Collins acted as chief mourner at
the funeral and, wearing crepe On
his hat, sought the coincidence of all
whom he met. There was much talk
and speculation at the time as to his
peculiar actions.
For four years after Agnes death
he continued to live with Charlotte,
although spending the greater part
Of his evenings away from home.
Then, about two weeks ago, he
went to Chicago-on business, he ex-
planned. 1t was during this trip that
he married Clarice McCurdy.
And now the grand jury must step
in and decide the question: Which
of the Newman sisters did Collins
marry 16 years ago?
Disbarment proceedings, which
were begun some time ago against
Collins, are pending at the present
time in the supreme court. Shortly
after the death of Agnes he obtained
possession of $500 on deposit in her

THE THREE CHILDREN WHOSE
Collins occupied until a short time
ago with the woman who has borne
his name for l6 years.
Collins has always been a pictur-
esque figure at the bar in San Fran
cisco man of brilliant intellect,
which he has more than once used
to defend and liberate on technical
files criminals of the lowest type, he
has at once fascinated and reVolted
his townsmen. Time and again has
his name appeared before the public
in some sensational connection. So
when San Francisco awoke one morn
ing last week and was told that
George d. Collins had become the
husband of beautiful Clarice McCurdy
it held up it's hands in establishment
and asked What neXtT
