Spellman. began prepaFa- ton of & remarkable petition today, 8 few hours after his Cifant's death. to sxpunge the record Of the interlocu- tory decree already granted.
 T have always loved you, Fritz; I have always hoped something would happen to bring you back to me-" the dying Woman's words of reconciliation with her husband; the deathbed scene; ; her tears and embraces; his assur- ances of love; his promise to try to fulfill her last wish-an these will be written into the petition, together with Heinze's mother, her sister and the nurses who stood near by
 Never before has the supreme court of New York been petitfened to ex- punge the record of g. divorce by 8 voice from the grave.
 Had she lived, it would have been possible for Mrs. Heinze to discon tsnu 6 this action Mir. SpeHna,n said today. Because of her love for Heinze and her hope that something would bring about 8 reconciliation. she postponed taking the final decree which might have been entered last month. She Lho'd o111J t1it 1ApI11 If LC uSC1OS WI1ClIl- CT the decree would be taken. Again and again she told me. Wait. wait that decree means death between my husband and me. To take 1t would tear my soul from it's body
 During the last minutes of her life she repeated over and over again the request that the record be expunged. I am convinced that there must be some method for the Great Chancellor to reach out and destroy or seal those records"
