day.
First there came the story that II.

Anne Stillmar. daughter of the
estranged pair, we're prepared to appear
before the court or referee and tell
stories that will leave no further ques-
tion regarding the status of the boy.

storm center of the case. Miss Still
man. IL is said. has declared she felt II
ler duty to stand by her mother. What
she will testify to has not been in
timated.
Second. 1t was declared lawyers for
Mrs. Stillman were prepared to offer
afidavits 10 the effect that the banker
and the still mysterious second woman
were intimate from the latter part Of
1914 until late in 1917 under assumed
names in an uptown apartment house.

six persons whose names are always

ionable guests. to the effect that from
February /. 1913. until Guy Stillman
was born. November Is, 1918. the
Stilmans lived together in the concord
that is expected in the life Of normal
married people.
Mr.. Clawson is expected TO tell OF his
having been a guest in the Stillman
home during February, 1918, and his
failure to observe anything suggestive
of estrangemcnt between Mr.. and Mrs.
Stillman. This will have direct bear
ing upon the bankers secondary charge
that Guy is not his son.
Mr.. Clawson will be the witness who
will be depended upon chiefly by John
