NEW BRUNSWICk. N. j., Oct.
20,-An amazing love-epistle found
In the effects of Mrs. Eleanor K.
Mills suddenly has developed a com.
pelling angle In the Hall.Milis
double staying mystery. 1t Is as
though q voice from the grave had
spoken In an effort to untangie
the battling murder Of the Rev. Ed.
ward Wheeler Hall and his "won.
der-heart," Mrs. Eleanor r. Mills.
The. Washington Times Is able to
reveal. through one OF the minis
ter's soul-baring' letters to Mrs.
Mills. evidence Of a definite break
between Mrs. Hail, the wife, and
Mrs. Mills, the soul mate.
So acute was that break, as is
disclosed by the letter of the slain
rector, that II was made an i'm.
portant subject Of correspondence
between the two love-letter writer's.
In missive written on a Sunday
afternoon last August while the rec.
tor was vacationing with his wife at
islesford. Me-. he wrote to hts be-
loved choir singer:
Sunday afternoon. Dear, dear.
dear wonderheart Of mine! I feel
as, though were beginning an
endless letter to you. Darling, I am
talking to you SO constantly, asleep
and awake. that l know you must
hear me-but I must also try to tell
you a little Of all the thoughts and
longings and dreams that have been
rushing through me these past days.
1t does seem as though our love was
just the most precious, wonderful
work Of art. The beauty. the won
der. the peace, the calm. the strength,
the passion Of II grows and grows
every moment. II seems as though
every moment of separation Just
binds us more strongly. together, and
live In dreams of what we have
done and what we will do when we
have the opportunity.
EVERY one Of your dear good lei ::
ters have filled me with all, sorts of
things to say. The address plan
works perfectly. I do not always
have time to read at once, but
always make an opportunity very
soon and to know / have the mes.
sage makes me happy through and
through. love your feeling that
our messages are sacred-they are.
And no one should see them. About
your pain-I am afraid the swim.
ming on the choir ride was too
much. for II was cold in the car
coming home and you were SO tired.
but II was not the swimming itself.
We will go in together dearest heart.
Tor, as you say, we must do every.
thing together. Just our first op-
portunity we will go to Murrays
and have Il day in New York and
later could we arrange q trip? Then

Oh. / could have you write forever.
