He constantly made references

The charge of immoral con-
duct is apparently based on the
thought that Mrs. Marksz's preg-
nancy by me resulted from an
act of adultery. This is quite un-
true. There was no adultery. The
word adultery implies impurity
or corruption. Adultery occurs
when a married person deserts
his spouse in his heart and, urg-
ed by lustful passion, has sexu-
al intercourse with someone
else. This did not occur with
Mrs. MarkSz and myself. Our
actions did issue forth from
Putty of Heart.
