duced her in Kansas City, altho her
testimony showed she had been there
twice. She was unfamiliar with the
city at the time of the visit, she testi-
fled, and was taken there in a taxi
cab. She repeatedly refused to give
dates and thus avoided subsequent
confusion concerning them on cross
examination.
Atchison, attorney for Bessie Stewart,
moved to amend his original petition
and insert seduction along with breach
of promise, humiliation and body suf-
fering as grounds for damages. His
motion was bitterly contested by the
defense but was sustained by Judge
Carver.
That necessitated Bessie Stewart
naming the places of relations with
Grubbs. A rooming house near Sew
enteenth street and Kansas avenue:
the Chesterfield hotel and a brick flat
on either Sixth or Fifth street near the
court house were named by her.
Mrs. Alice Egglestone, Az East
Fifth street, was the next witness on
the stand Bessie Stewart roomed at
her house for a long time. Mrs. Eggle-
stone testified that Loehr Grubbs
called on Bessie Stewart nearly every
night for eight or nine months. She
testified that Bessie Stewart had told
her of her engagement to Grubbs, that
she had seen fancy work and towels
/

lap embroidering fancy work for her
future home, had seen letters written
