\ Mrs. Dooley or Daum, former day

told her Of the correspondent staying

There was one or two other wit
Inesses, but their testimony was un-
essential and untmportant upon the
main issue. Both the defendant and
the correspondent deny the evidence
aduced by these witnesses upon every
essential fact, and their testimony Is
Of the most part sustained by q clear
preponderance Of evidence upon every
fact except the keyhole testimony Of
Dempsey g to an occurrence which
is alleged to have taken place thirteen
years ago.
Neither Dempsey nor. the two wo-
men ever informed plaintiff Of their

1894 and 1895 up to the time of the
