Chicago, June 23.-Although the
excerpts from the Book Of Truth"
read at the trial Of Evelyn Arthur
See today were Of a nature that
earned the earnest attention OF the
spectators, Juror T.. Gottlieb fell
asleep and slumbered peacefully for
10 minutes. His nap was broken
when Prosecutor Burnham loudly
declaimed paragraph which caused
wave Of blushes TO spread over the
feminine contingent Then he set
tied back in his chair and listened.
Attorney James Il. Callahan for
the defense, said that Gottlieb's re-
lapse might necessltate "a new trial
for See. The day was hot and the
court room was crowded. A stenog-
rapher a policeman and a spectator
also went to sleep. Those who say
the defendant has an hypnotic eye,
called attention to the fact that
those who succumbed were in line
with his vision, but no one could
swear he had looked with any in
tensty at any OF the sleepcrs, eX-
cept the Juror,
Mildred Bridges, the 17-year-old
girl, who Is alleged to have been
abducted and mstreated by Evelyn
Arthur See, head OF the Absolute
Life Cult, resumed the stand In Sees
trial today to conclude her tosti-
money.
The girl has proved to be so clever
that the state, whoch subpoenaed
her against See, has failed utterly to
make her admit her relations with
See, despite the fact that she admits
kissing him and writing love letters
to him,
Mildred and Mona Recs lived at
Sees Love Jungle on Racine Ave-
nue. and neighbors testified to rather
negligee scenes and action in the
flat
Further arguments en- whether the
whole Book Of Truth" should he
admitted in evidence were heard by
Judge Honore when the morning
session opened.
There is not a solitary paragraph
taken from the texts read by Mr.
Burnham, which. standing alone, can
convict See OF immortality and TAX
ing any single verse or text from any
book, even the Bible, does a great in
justice. There are many verses in
the Bible, which, II read alone
would shock one, but no one will
contend that anything in the holy
book was put there for any but the
best OF purposes.
But It is not fair TO take these
verses alone to prove that the teach
ings Of this man were immoral"
said Attorney Cantwell.
The jury was excluded while the
arguments were being made,
Shortly before II o'clock Mildred
Bridges concluded her testimony and
was excused. Assistant S,ates Attor-
ney Burnham then began the reading
Of themanuscript OF Sees Book Of
Truth" Judge Honore having ruled
that II might be read.
The following are abstracts from
the See hidden gospel:
They leny the flesh. Is II not my
manifestation? Is It not myself?
! give flesh 10 flesh. / do not deny II.
| Flesh shall commune with flesh as
mind with mind DO you cover your
selves? Shame, shame on you, What
you call shame is your own minds
] 40 al Il. Ia 90, Y,,Ks

who says the region Of your mystery
is obscene? who makes it2 DO not
| |? who accuses mc2 ! am clean
Sex is the symbol Of mystery, What
you call shame is your own minds
mystery. He who Is pure Is not de-
filed I'm circumstances, Flesh in itself
Ia not sensual TO the pure all things
are pure, to the impure all things
are impure. To come TO purity Is to
establish freedom. oh. woman, do
not fear man. oh, man, do not fear
woman. | have made woman for
man and man for woman. yet they
are not for themselves, they are for
me. Is not the flesh clean? Yes,
even as clean as In the soul. DO not
deny the flesh and do not deny the
soul. All things are for me and who
shall say nay2
Any experience in the world is not
forbidden.
Being pure 90 you in your concep-
tion Of an act all things are really
pure,
when you escape the dcluson IN
which mortals live the possibility Of
lmpurity will be dissolved.
The man and the woman shall
neither deny the order Of the other.
You shall know the full beauty Of
the flesh In your purity.
Nothing is sensual that Ia Of the
spirit through the body. The pleas
ures OF the body are sanctred by the
spirit.
