and wealthiest of the townspeople.
There were several who were IN
more moderate circumstances. But
exuding from the wealthier wor-
shippers there seemed to be a snob-
bishness Of caste !.
IL was not altogether contempt
for Interiors, but rather the pride
| of caste. a half-amused tradition
Of the right kind Of tie, the social
code of a certain set. An in
heritance from their ,forefathers, a
habit hard to break.
Effeminate
when DR.. Hall first came to New
Brunswick he lacked the healthy,
robust physique he had at the time
Of his murder. There are many
who recall those, first few months,
when every now and then he would
faint in the pulpit and had to be
carried out, revived, and services
temporarily suspended. .
He was about feet 3 inches tall,
weighed about $50 pounds. had
brown eyes and brown hair. Not q
prepossessing type, but one that IN
spired the confidence and respect
Of his congregati on. He preached
splendid sermon, so the citizens
saw. and those who attended his
church out of curiosity returned to
admire.
There were some who accused
Rev. DIR. Hall of being effeminate.
Probably they were the ones who
lacked the Dominie's fascinating
personality. But he was broad
minded and everyone admired him,
both young and old. Scarcely a
week passed that he did not gather
the Boy Scouts of the church and
take them on excursions to Prince
ton to attend the football games or
other events. They adored him.
The mothers OF the church had
banded themselves together, form
ing the Mothers Society. They met
each week in one Of the church par
lors and DR.. Hall was always the
honored guest. Often when they
were there sewing during the hot
weather he would run out and re-
turn with quarts Of ice cream. AL
ways thoughtful, always consider
ate, wondering how much he could
do for someone else.
Frequent picnics for them to
Princeton, Bound Brook, and church
socials gave him lasting hold on
their affections.
His salary wasn't large, only
81 500 q year, but out of it he man
aged to support his mother and
himself in an apartment at Com
mercial and George Streets.
Met First Love
He didn't meet Matte Long the
first Sunday he preached there, nor
the second. But on the third, look
ing down from the pulpit while
reading passage from the Bible,
he saw her.
She was sitting there. near the
front, dressed entirely In white, the
simplicity of refinement evident in
her apparel It was an extraordi-
nary friendship that sprang up be-
tween these two-the black-haired
girl with the swapping black eyes
who always wore high French heels
and inclined to be quiet and al
most sullen among strangers, but
vivacious and frey among friends
and the Dominic who craved under

Episcopal church, but sometimes
wore an ordinary shirt and four-in-
hand tie.
The Reverend Doctor Hall was
drawn to her fire-she was %, and
he was %. She was meticulousiy
neat, had high ideals. He decided
to call on her, but first he asked
the consent Of Mattie's mother, who
always knew all her daughters 8
friends and where she went with
them.
Mother Consented
Mother consented and the court
ship of the Reverend Doctor Hall
with Matte Long began.
Frances Noel Stevens, q woman
OF about 35. became interested in
the young rector Of her church.
Doctor Hall had never taken an un.
due interest in her. He had known
she was a member and one of the
clan of the wealthy Carpenters and
SteVgnses, and that was all.
But one day the Sunday school
had its aannual picnic. The people
went out to Boynton Beach in cars
loaded down with basket lunches.
Matte had fixed a particularly
dainty luncheon for herself and
Eddie" There were all sorts Of
delicacies OF the things he liked.
Wafer.thin sandwiches, fluffy home
made cake and all the ''fixings." !"
When they arrived several Of them
agreed to put their food together
on one table and, of course, DR..
Hall was invited to join their
party.
Scarcely had he accepted than a
close relative Of Frances Stevens
approached him, It Is reported,
grasping him by the arm, said:
"Oh, DIR. Hall, you must como
and have luncheon with us."
Rev. DIR. Hall, poor man, was in
a quandary.
Miss Stevens, who later became
Mrs. Hall. then appeared and
grasped him by the other arm.
''Oh, but we have chicken sand
Wiches."
The pastor preferred chicken
sandwiches, and all Mattie's efforts
had been in vain.
Shortly after this, friends say,
Matte wore a diamond engagement
ring and plans were made to so
to Florida on their honeymoon.
And then one evening Matte
and DR.. Hall were at the home OF
very dear friend of Mattie's. who
was giving a dinner party in honor
OF the young couple.
He Failed Her
There had been no formal an.
nouncement Of their engagement,
but each day neighbors picked up
the daily paper In which they ex-
pected to read of the 'orthcoming
nuptials. On the evening Of the
party the guests were gay, but
the gayest of all were Matte and
"Edo:e" Hall. They entered into
tie spirit 0f the evening with zest.
They frolicked and laughed. and
when dancing began, they led the
old fashioned cake walk.
just one week later Matte gave
dinner intending TO announce her
engagement.
But she never did,.

REMOVAL IS ASKED
FOR TOURIST CAMP
Mrs. F. E. harrington Wants
Move, But Group Decides on
Committee Research.

The civic section of the Twentieth
Century Club today, at meeting at
the Women's City Club, adopted a
resolution authorizing Mrs. Frederick
z. Harrington, the section chairman.
to appoint three committees to see
what can be done toward removal of
the tourist camp from Potomac Park,
and to get the opinions of Washing
ton citizens regarding the matter
The section decided not to vote a
resolution either against or favoring
the removal of the camp pending the
Investigations by the committees.
Will See Maj. Grant.
One committee is to be appointed
to interview Maj. L. S. Grant, SUI
perintendent of public buildings and
public parks, another for study OF
sites for another location for the
tourist camp, and the third commit
tee to canvass the citizens associa-
tions for opinions.
Mrs. harrington, who at the first
Fall meeting Of the Twentieth Cen
tury Club characterized the camp as
typhoid dump" today reiterated
her statement that she is going to
do all in her power to see that the
camp is removed. Il shall do every
thing possible to take away the tour
fst camp, whether 1 have to do it
with others or by myself" she said
Mrs. Philip S. Smith, president OF
the Twentieth Century Club. declared
that the mere fact that the camp is
ugly is sufficient reason for its re
moval, regardless Of it's sanitation.
Difference of Opinion.
There was some difference Of opin
ion regarding the feasibility of a re
location of the camp. Mrs. George
Kicker being one of those who spoke
in favor of the camps present loca
ton. 1t was pointed out at the meet
ing that the camp could be so screened
off as to not be "unsightly."
The section adopted a resolution
favoring the water front in South
west Washington as the new location
for Center Market. There was also
provision in the resolution to
change the name of the market to
Terminal Market" in the event 1t is
placed in the Southwest section. Mrs
Harvey w. Wiley. who made the re
port on the several proposed market
sites, suggested the new name for
the market, on the ground that il
would do away with the idea that the
market should be located in the cen
ter of the city, as the name Center
Market would indicate.

bLANT0N DEFENDS
OFFICER STAPLES
Policeman, Charged With Re-
fuSing to Pay Debt, Before
Trial Board.

Representative Thomas l.. Blanton
of Texas today appeared before the
police trial board at the sixth pre-
cinct station to champion the cause
of Policeman Orville Staples of the
third precinct, who was tried on a
charge Of failing to pay just debt
preferred by Robert Munro, a builder.
Mr.. Blanton declared that his client
was innocent of any misdemeanor and
asked dismissal of the case.
Chairman w. II. Wahly of the trial
board, however, ruled that the case
be continued so that the members
of the board might hear Staples de-
fense. but remarked that it was 'ques-
tionable" if the evidence in the case
showed anything contrary to the man.
dates Of the police manual. At the
conclusion of testimony the case was
taken under advisement.
Defense witnesses, in addition to
Staples, included a number of his
superior officers, all of whom testified
as to the good reputation and char
acter of the defendent. both as a
citizen and as a member of the police
force. The only prosecution witness
was Mr.. Munro.
Grew Out of Realty Transfer.
The charge against the youthful
officer, who came into prominence
this Summer by preferring charges
against the former Police Commits
sioner. Frederick A. Fenning, for an
alleged violation of a minor parking
regulation, grew out of the transfer
to two pieces Of property, one owned
by Staples and the other by Mr.
Munro.
Evidence showed that Mr.. Munro
lost Dnnopohoy, cd 10 cell
the policeman a house at 730 Newton
street, for which a down payment Of
$500 was to be made. OF this first
payment, 1885, the equity which Mr.
Staples held in a house he resided in
at 52S Hobart street, was to be ap-
piled as commission to the agent for
Mr.. Munro-Arthur Nice.
Testimony today was to the effect
that Mr.. Staples had transferred the
deed to the Hobart street house to
Mr.. Nice and had paid him Sis addi-
tional, making up the remainder Of
the $500 first payment on the other
property.
This Sis of the first payment never
reached Mr.. Munro, it was testified,
and he refused to execute the deed
of the Newton street house to the
officer. After some further negotia-
tions, Mr.. Staples and his family
were removed fro mthe Newton street
house by legal proceedings.
Mr.. Munro declined to answer the
majority of the questions put to him
by Mr.. Blanton, saying that they al
ready had been settled in the case be-
fore Judge OToole in Municipal
Court, where a judgment of 1910 was
rendered against Staples.
Among character witnesses for
Staples were Capt. Albert L. Head
ley of the fourth precinct, Inspector
Brown of the Traffic Bureau, Lieut..
Michael Ready of the third precinct,
Lieut.. T. ]. Carroll Of the park po-
lice, and Attorney Harry T. Whelan,
who had advised Staples not to con-
tinue payments until he got a deed.
