told him that our relationship could
only result in grief and sorrow, and he
replied that he would stay by me all

in Browns presence, and II had been
given the senator's name. He had
wanted to get a divorce and marry her,
she said, but she would not consent TO
break up his home and had tried TO
break the relationship, but he would
not have it so, and would frequently
come to her saying she was the only

hard to tell ones feelings" She had
cried. she said, when Mr.. Brown had
made his race for the United States
had cheered her with the assurance
that whatever happened they would
stay together. He had written her as
many as five letters a day, she con-

deeply as it was possible TO love.

He then consulted her about every
thing, including his financial affairs
and his law cases. Mrs. Bradley testi-

life together another green spot, the
memory of which delighted her She

While they were at Grand Junction,
Mrs. Bradley continued. Mr.. Brown had
assured her that his arrangements for
