I’LL DIE RATHER THAN LEAVE
MOTHER,” HYSTERICALLY CRIED
YOUNG GIRL IN POLICE COURT
I die before I'll leave my mother,
’ll die right now," cried little lB-ycar-
<'Id Pearl Matthews in police court Fri
day morning ns she frantically clung
to her -mother and wept hysterically,
just after Recorder Broyles had taken,
her away from the mother and ordered
her sent to the Home for the Friend
less.
"It would very likely be the best
thing for you to die rather than to
stay with your mother," replied the re
corder.
The girl entwined her arms about
the waist of her mother and held onto
her with a vlce-llke grip, and the latter
had to go back Into the prisoners’ room
with her, accompanied by Miss Sander
son, the matron. The scene proved one
of the moBt dramatic witnessed In the
police court romp In some time.
The mother, Mrs. M. A. Matthews,
and the girl came to Atlanta on March
15 from Newberry, 8. C. Probation
Officer Oloer received reports to the
effect that the mother was not the
proper person to care for the child,
and, after an Investigation, brought
both before the recorder.
Judge Broyles placed the girl In the
home temporarily, the mother stating
that she had a brother In Newberry
who would be glad to care for her.
Mrs. Matthews denied vehemently she
was guilty of any wrongdoing.

New York, June 12.—Death threats,
against one of the many witnesses
opposed to Mrs. Grace E. Lovett were
revealed today when the trial of the
action for divorce, brought by the
wealthy real estate man of Brook

A sensation was produced by the ex
hlbltlon of two anonymous letters ro
calved by Mre. Inez Courtney, the ob
Ject of which patpaby was to Intlmt
date her eo that she would not testify
for Lovett.
Both letters produced In court today
were printed. This explained why
Lovatra lawyer had Mra. Lovett print
the address, "Mrs. Inox Courtney, No.
1135 Bergen street, Brooklyn,” yeiter
day. The flret letter read:
"Take ndvlce and lenvo Brooklyn.
Thwe is —thing In It for you. You
„lll ,pgr,-I I, If you do not."
The second letter, which was post'
marked June 12. read:
If you taka the stand vour Ilfs Is In
danger."
Neither was signed.
Lawyer Ketchum, Mrs. Lovett's
lawyer, showed both letters to her and
asked her If she had written them. Mre.
Lovett said:
"I did not."
William H. Kinsley, a. handwriting
expert, said that he had compared the

Mrs. Courtney was recalled today
and flatly contradicted Mrs. Webb, the
mother of Mrs. Lovett, who testified
that she wee present when Mrs. Lovett
wrote the letter to Grant and that It
waa Indited and forwarded by Mrs.
Coutrney In a spirit of fun.
