, Mrs Leeds who christened Mr.. Still
mans yacht Modesty Is indicated in
the following statements
Il have manicured Mrs. Leeds as
late as January, 1891. She told me
she was going to Florida next day, and
that she intended to go on the yacht
with some friends, but that she was
not good sailor and had finally de-
cided to go by train. One time last
summer she told me she was going to
christen a yacht that day and that she
was in a hurry"
On another occasion her client re-
vealed that Mr. Leeds had purchased
a cooperative plan apartment on Park
Avenue for her, according to the wit
ness. She said he paid $4,000 cash
for it, and that she had spent $17,500
for redecoratng it.
Mrs. Leeds showed mo twenty 500
bills and told me she was going to de-
posit them in bank" declared this
woman. "She said that Mr.. Leeds
made her mn allowance of $4,000 n
month and that she deposited it in her
bank. When he first made her an al
carry around 500 bills, she told me,
fer she thought it fun to have them
changed. She had got over that, how
ever, and assured me that now she
sometimes scarcely had carfare, for
she put everything in the bank. My
charge for manicuring was rs cents.
She never gave me tip"
Jay Called Visitor Daddy
In addition to the revelations made
by this woman, other new witnesses
have come forward who are ready to
testify to happenings in New York and
at the Cleveland Cottage, Florida,
whore Mr.; Stillman was alleged to have
been with Mrs. Leeds and Baby Jay.
One woman declares she has proof that
the baby always called Mr.. Stillman
Daddy" and that all bills at the
Miami home were paid to the First
In December, 1920, Mrs. Leeds arrived
at the cottage with the baby and
nurse. The Modesty was then anchored
in Biscayne Bay, near Miami. Almost
every night Mr.. Stllman and Mrs.
Leeds would leave the yacht and go
for a motor ride, according to this
witness.
Several witnesses will testify that
Mrs. Leeds invariably introduced Mr..
Stillman as MIR. Leeds, her husband.
One of the New York witnesses de-
scribes Mr.. Leeds as a "house man who
used to mix cocktails for dinner and
make coffee and toast" He tells of one
occasion when there were broken
glasses in the apartment in the morn
ing and he was told that Mrs. Leeds
had thrown glass at the banker dur
ing a quarrel
Counsel for the defense say they
have proof that Mr.. Stillman was not
the godfather of Jay Ward Leeds; that
George H. Glidden served in this ca
pacity when the child was baptized in
