The letter continues:

Had Refused to Meeting Thaw Alone.
1t was evident that the letter. which
was sent to Mr.. Longfellow, to be de-
livered TO Evelyn Nesbit, had been writ
ten subsequent to Thaw's interview
with the girl at the Hotel Navarro
after the return from Paris in 1903.
In this interview the girl told him OF
the stories she had heard about him,
and said she could not see him alone.
The letter. which in places was blurred
and had to be read with a magnifying
glass, went on:
Il have tried TO forget you. You
should have been at Joe's wedding"
Mrs. Thaw said the reference was to
the wedding of Josiah Thaw. The let
ter went on:
