shortly.
Mrs, Maybrick is charming wo-
nan whom | know, however, in n
purely business way" said Mr. Wag
ner upon his arrival from Lincoln.
Neb, The report that We are to

live. The marriage was unhappy, and
when Maybrick died his family accus-
ed the young wife of poisoning Him.

Of murder, convicted, and sentenced
to prison for life. Thousands in the
United States and England believed
the sentence was unjust, and after
years of effort Mrs. Maybriek's re-
lease on ticket of leave was brought
about. She came to the United States
and has been supporting herself by
lecturing.
Recently. by Virginia court decis-
ion, Mrs. Maybrick and her mother,
the Baroness la Rogue. won the title to
