by his tale, and he could not be shaken;
hs Was proved to have been repairing
Richard s yacht at that time and place.
Stanley produced another witness, the
widow of Joe Bates; a slender, pretty
little woman, gentle, timid and pious.
She trembled when she went to the
stand, and took the oath in a trembling
but clear voice.
"Now, Mrs. Bates" said Stanley,
"you will only have to tell just what you
know about your husband; you have moth
ing else to do with this matter"
Mrs. Bates testified that on or about
the date of the repairing of the yacht
her husband had come home and had CIV
en- her a thousand dollars in cash, and he
had told her that he would have much
more when he had finished a job he had
on hand, but it might be "a year or two
before he got his money. He had to go
to Glen City, and would write.
He did write; the letter was produced
and read to the jury. 1t was brief, and
in effect said that he bad secured his job
and would write her what to do. He new
err wrote. In about three months she read
in a newspaper that he had been killed in
the pen~itentiary. She had not used any
of the money, for Joe lad told her to save
it; he had given her enough to live on un.
til he should tell her otherwise.
When that was gone she lived by sewing
in falnilies. She had put the money in
a savilgs-bauk, and it was there still
Stanley showed a certificate of deposit by
Nora Bates. also a letter from the cashier
saying the money was still there. Stanley
further produced a promissory note read
ing:
"Three years after date, I promise to
pay Joseph Bates, the sum of Nine Thou
sand Dollars, for value received.
RICHARD SoULE."
This, she said her husband told her, had
been hard to get, and only by threatening
to throw up the job had he prevailed on
his boss, as his work was to involve great
personal risk.
This was, in substance, the testimony
Of Mrs. Bates. This concluded the pro-
ceedinas for the day.
The next day the State tried hard to
break her down, but failed. There were
produced three or four other signatures
Of Richards, which Stanley had obtained
from banks in Glen City, one Of which was
the check with which he had paid for the
lady's wardrobe he bad been so careful
to ordeI.
Aileen went on the stand and testified
to Richards wild passion for her and his
vowing vengeance; SHE almost broke down
when she was obliged to relate the matter
of the forgery. She longed to say one

CHAPTER XIX.

At San Diego, in California, where Ger.

the hcpe that.the genial air Of the Pacific
would restore her to health, she died in the
following Spring; worn out with grief
and anxiety, she sank when he was set
free, and cared no more to live. Geralds
grief was great; he had an unusual love
for his mother, and he gave her up vita
anguish.
After a time Of great restlessness he
one day said to Aileen.
"My dearest, I feel a brute to tell yo1
that / feel I must leave you for a time;

Stanley went to the office Of his friend
and shut himself up alone, Dudley and
Clinker went back to Glen City. The
next morning, while at breakfast, their
father received a telegram; he opened it
nervously; the whole assembled family
suspended operations to watch him.
"Not guilty!"
"Dudley jumped up and seized his
fathers respectable hat, which happened
to be at hand, and threw it wildly to the
ceiling, and danced a wild two-step Of re.
