TELLS HER SAD STORY.
Mrs. Bradley Relates to Jury
Life She Led
WITH MAN SHE MURDERS
Spoke With Pride of His Intellectual
Attachments and Also Declared He
Had Assured Her She Was the Only
Woman He Ever Loved.

ress in the criminal court, few min
utes before O'clock Tuesday. after
she had spent about four hours on
the witness stan1. relating the details
of her acquainranccship and intimacy
with former United States Sc; ator
Brown. with whose murder she stands
charged. and Judge Stafford immedi
ately gave orde.s for the adjournment
of court. She had not reached the
events directly connected with the
tragedy in which Brown was killed.
but had very closely approached them.
and they will be the subject of the
first testimony 70 be given Wednes-
day.
The story ,lealt with the first ac-
quaintance of Mrs. Bradley with
Brown, and TO how the acquaintance
gradually ripene1 into friendship and
finally into love. 1t was a long and
pathetic narrative of illicit affection:
of promise of maj riage which could
at first be made only on the condition
of divorce on bon sides and then OF
disappointment and grief when both
became free and could have been legal
ly united If Br 'wn had been willing.
Mrs. Bradley told the particulars Of
| many pledges made to her: told OF
| how Brown ha Introduced her as his
wifn hny l,n hcI uir
| to one of their Children. aud also how
he aided her in no less than three
criminal operations.
She related also many pleasant in
cidents of their life together She
| wore a smile when she spoke of her
| pride in his intellectual attainments,
| and told of their reading together the
principal poets. She said that he told
her over and over again that she was
! the only woman he had ever loved
| and averred that by his manner toward
her, and his superior attainments. he
had gained complete mastery over
her.
The court room was crowded during
the entire day. md many of the spec
tators were women. Tears were fire.
| quently shed. not only by the general
audience, but once or twice by mem

| quite emotional. and her voice was
scarcely audible ut times Her attor-
neys, however. expressed confidence
after the witness left the stand that
she would be able to proceed to the
end without breakdown Mrs. Brad
| ley said her health had failed during
her association with Brown, and she
| told of one occasion when she was
| tempted to commit suicide.

Montgomery, Nov. 21.-In spite Of
the protests of the Mobile members of
the Carmichael prohibition bill as it
passed the senate Oh Tuesday was ap-
proved by the house Wednesday on a
vote of 20 TO 4. 1t was enrolled and

Hoffman of Mobile tried to have an
amendment submitted to exclude Mo
bile, but later withdrew it on the idea
that the governor may be induced TO
offer an amendment that gives that
county some relief
1t was argued that as the Mobile
public schools are given by the consti-
tuition all liquor licenses. they are cut
out of funds md taxes that are enjoy
ed by other counties. They have no
way of getting new revenue until tax
laws can be passed that will provide

of the Bra 1lev trial was reached
Wednesday, when Mrs Bradley, test

particulars Of Tor final interview with
ex-senator Brown III the Raleigh hotel

the details she could remember OF the
shooting which followed Courtroom

buoyant but she never does, and ii
cannot be said there was much change
in her appearance from Tuesday when
she related all :ho details of her life
with Brown during their intimacy.
Judge Stafford had no sooner taken
his seat than Mrs. Bradley resumed
her place in the witness chair She
was first asked tC identify number
of letters written her at different
times by Senator Brown and did so
There was SO llany of these docu-
mentS that fOrty-tive minutes were
consumed in the mere exhibition Of
