chester, and on looking in the city d.
rectory found that his address was given
as 73 Orange street, where she went
and made inquiries for him. The woman
who was in the house spoke of Falar.
deau as her husband and said that he
was at his work in the Smith lier shop.
The visitor informed her hostess that
she was a relative of the man, but, when
invited to stay to luncheon, declared,
giving as an excuse, the necessity Of
going on to Lowell, Mass.
1t wasn't to Lowell, however, but to
the police station that the tall, attrac-
tive blonde went, and there she told her
story.

ried the woman with whom he is now
living in Nashua, Angst 26, 1905. She
