went 10 see him at Sing Sins spending
her money ana mine Tor blankets TOT

''She finally stopped her visits and did
not see him for four years Then they
met on the street one day. He had
been paroled, and he begged her to come
back TO him She asked my advice, and
I told her to do what she thought was
best She went back TO him, and they
lived together for two weeks at board

and ] cannot understand why she did
not leave him.
"The day before he came 10 Wash

and wanted more. AS he had lost his
position. / do rot know how he got
money for a ticket 10 Washington"
Mrs. Lewis went TO Police Headquar-

she was absent from the hospital, the
surgeons removed the two bullets from
the body Of her daughter. These bull
lets passed through her body and could
