Concealed Her First Marriage.

She was known here as Miss Edith
Thompson, cOncealing her marriage from
all but a few intimate friends. In a short
time thereafter she entered suit for di-
Vorce against DR.. CasWeu.
She left Baltimore a year ago, being
engaged at the time to Harry Adams
of Mount Vernon. n. Y. After a brief
stay in New York she went to CalifOr
MIA where in less than thirty days after
her divorce from Dr. Caswell she mar
ried Gilbert WOOdill of Los Angeles. It
has also been rumOred that in her early
youth. Charles Thompson, the son Of her
foster mother and father being a reject
ed sutton, committed suicide on her ac-
count.
During her residence in Baltimore Mr.
Gage, it is said. sent her checks continu-
ally, some of them amounting to 1880
and when she was married to Mr.. Wood
i'll he gave her 5000 At the time of her
death Mr.. Gage is said to have been
building her a house in Los Angeles. with
the understanding that he was to come
to live with her and her husband. All
Of these facts, it Is asserted, were stated
by Mrs. WOOdill to friends in Baltimore
prior to her death. Mrs. Woodill had d
peculiar charm for men, and nearly every
man who came in contact with her was
attracted. She possessed magnetism in
addition to beauty. In stature she was
rather petite, with a beautiful figure. an
expressive face, gol1en brown hair and
brown eyes. She was unusually well read
and musical and artistic in temperament
