plans or would she back down?
Her sincerest critics were delighted when
she went serenely ahead, without benefit Of
Vaentin's appearance.
Her husband she testified, was never en-
gagged in any business during the six years
we were married" except for period Of three
months when, with the help of her father, he
had got job selling automobiles.
She then went on to say that he had
struck her three times, the last two while
she was an eXpectant mother and from the
period Of little Valerie's birth had been insist
ent about getting a separation or divorce on
terms advantageous to himself.
Introduced in evidence was a letter from
Mr. Blacques New York attorney to Jerome
u Gedney. who was batting for Mr. Newman
on Junes legal team in Florida.
Il share with you" it read the sincere
hope that both Mr.. and Mrs. Blacque will re-
spect the spirit as well as the letter of the
agreement between them this referred to the
previous separation agreement giving the
custody of the children TO June.
Unfortunately almost before the ink was
dry on the documents Mrs. Blacque broke
into Mr. Bacques locked bedroom for the
purpose OF removing some articles which she
believed belonged TO her, and attempted TO
break down a closet door in which Mr..
Blacques most personal papers were kept.
Naturally this resulted in considerable
amount of bitterness on Mr.. Blacque's part
and you cannot expect him to be too kindly
disposed toward Mrs. Blacque at the moment"

In addition to these assets,

In 1885. she quit the stage

One of his grandfathers was the so-called
dean of American surgery. Dr. Valentine Mott;
his father was French royalist who had
fled to Turkey and there won high rank in
army and political life, eventually becoming
the Turkish Minister to France.
When the granddaughter Of tho dean of
American music marries the grandson of the

But six years later. after two children-a
