Henry Harrison Scott. who now held the
rank OF captain, was summoned by teie-
graph from Fort Morgan, Alabama, TO help
his sister out of her newest difficulty. she
had been three days in jail before he ar
rived. He talked with Craig for half an
hour. and then the charge on which the
woman was held was withdrawn. She was
released and went back TO her rowing life
among the artists.
So it was that she came to drift to
washington where she met young Porter
Charlton last winter. Three days after
their meeting the courts at last d.

received several thousand dollars as all

time to marry a man she really loved. with
her beauty slipping away, as greedy as

Again the wornan's intense nature drove
her on. She left her brothers home and
lived in New York, finding her friends
among the artists.
Then she learned that William NJ Craig
and his wife were in town. Both had been
her playrnates in her school days at San
Francisco. Mrs. Craig was a distant
cousin. She went to call. and the couple
were SO touched by her suffering and lone
