A visit TO the south.

A visit TO the south.
I'VE expect to go South right after
Christmas. think the change will do
Bill. the baby and myself very much good.
We both have gone through IA great deal.
You never know what the love OF
mother Is until YOU have had baby. /
only wish had a dozen like the baby. the
dear little infant lamb Baby joins me in
sending his love to YOU"
Isn't II possible" asked Mr.. Hamilton,
"since you were merely trying to carry
out your original story to Mrs. Glassberg.
that when YOU wrote OF Bill and you and
the baby that you were referring 20 WILL
lam a. Burr and your own fictitious
baby?'
Yes, come 10 think Of II. that must
have been what l meant. replied Miss
Sullivan.
Asked when Burr first began calling
on her Miss Sullivan said:
When / was living with Mr.. and Mrs.
! Stade. or rather when Mr.. and Mrs. Stade
were living with me, for paid all the ex-
penses out OF the money Mr.. Hoe gave
me. Mr.. Burr continued to visit me two
or three times week"
, Isn't Il a fact that at the time you
were living at $50 West 1884 street as
Mrs. William 3 Burr. more than year
after your complaint says Mr.. Hoe prom
ised to marry you. that you had sublet an
| apartment and were known as Mrs.
Burr"
81 had told Mrs. Glassberg Mr.. Burr
and | were married"
Had you married Burr
| mo. and | am not married to any
other man this day"
Miss Sullivan admitted that she gave
! a wine party to a number OF her girl
| friends at Breton Hall and when asked
| II she didn't announce that Burr was
| paying for the dinner In order that she
might announce her engagement to her
| friends. she said:
II don't remember"
Miss sullivan said she had pawned a
| sl.7O0 diamond platinum ring Hoe gave
| her. to pay bills he had refused to meet.
She said that Burr once got $500 from
! Hoe to pay her rent at Breton Hall so
she could move 10 another apartment.
Says Hoe Choked Her.
Miss Sullivan was asked concerning
| her acquaintance with Edward Morlarity,
| a furniture dealer. and she said she knew
three brothers named Moriarity, but
knew Edward best. She said she couldn't
remember that she ever expected to marry
| Moriarity. or had cards engraved bearing
her name as Mrs. Edward Moriarity."
Mr.. Hamilton asked the plaintiff for full
details concerning the alleged occurrences
| when she said Hoe first visited her alone
and overpowered her. She said:
HE almost choked me into uncon
seriousness, and don't remember the
rest. He began to choke me in the din
Ing room. When / recovered found my
self on my bed. He was still there, but
he went before Miss Brannigan returned.
l think she saw the marks on my neck"
"Did you call the police?"
mo, l didn't tell any one what hap
pened."
Miss Sullivan told of two alter occasions
when Hoe called. and said that her chur,.
Miss Brannigan. was hiding In the bath
| room on one OF these visits. She said
Kiss Brannigan did this because when
ever Mr.. Hoe called he always searched
| the apartment to see IL any one else was
| there.
At this jupcture Miss Sullivan, who-e
face was burning and her hands trem-
bling. asked II she might be excused from
testifying further at that time. The cot I
| questioned the attorney for the defendant
| and learned that the cross-examination
would take several hours more. 30 the
plaintiff was excused for the day.
Hoe Called, but Excused.
Mr.. Towns. continuing with the plain
Tins case. then called the defendant as
a witness. Before the lawyer could ques-
ton him his own attorney objected, and
Justice Gavegan ruled that he needn't
testify against himself,
employees or the apartment house at
420 Riverside Drive were called to swear
to Miss Sullivan's good character.
Lola Hedges. maid In Miss Sullivan's
| apartment for a time, testified that Miss
Sullivan once ordered her to stand on a
chair and balance herself on ono foot
while the plaintiff ate dinner, She didn't
comply with the request Miss Hedges
said there were times when the apartment
larder was almost empty. and then mfr.
Hanley." the name by which she knew
Mr. Hoe, would call, and Miss Sullivan
then had plenty of money. Miss Sullivan
once handed her a roll containing 81, 900,
she said. When asked how she knew the
amount she replied:
II was counting II and counting II until
| / got tired"
William A. Daley. mentioned In the
testimony OF Miss Sullivan. is now suing
Mr. Hoe for $4,000 under contract To
gather evidence for Mr.. Hoe concerning
the character and life OF Miss Sullivan.
Daley contends that he was TO get s25,-
000 and that only $1,000 has been paid
Mr., Hoe filed an answer yesterday al
leeing that Daley undertook to engage
In the business OF private detective without
obtaining a State license to do so, and
sor this reason any contract with DALEY
was Illegal and not enforcible.
