on a charge OF bigamy preferred by
Frank p. Hynes, proprietor OF the

Upon furnishing the bond and re-
turning home she discovered that the
sheriff had levied on all her belong
ings--her costly home, one Of the
show places OF Sheepshead Bay; her
luxurious furnishings, paintings, bric-
a-brac. and a $1,000 automobile.
Fearing that mysterious callers

though she informed a reporter for
the New York American that she
never was married to Hynes, is I'M

Il became infatuated with him, but

love him. My first husband had left
me quite a fortune, and l learned TO
my sorrow that it was this that at
tracted Hynes. l gave him the
money with which to start the Cos
mos Hotel, and now / am repaid FOR
my generosity by this outrageous
trumped-up charge of bigamy.
After realizing my folly in TAX
ing up with him / informed him that
l was through with him for good.
In a spirit of revenge he brings this
charge against me.
ITS simply a case OF trying to get
possession OF all my money and be-
longings. He has already attached
my bank accounts"
