With tears coursing down her

his wife that he was going TO take her
to Spokane, to get away from a wo-
man who was pursuing him. They
went to Chicago-on the way TO Spo-

with a desire to visit Marquette pris-
on, where he was sent eight years

HIS wife says. Mrs. Garfield had been
married 10 him two years when he
was sent up, she says, and was walt
ing for him when he got out. She
also had visited him In the prison,
she told Justice Jeffries.
When Garfield hired livery rig In
Marquette, and suggested drive out
into the country, Mrs. Garfield grew
suspicious.
