Mrs. Glenn’s Answer

t,
When I think of what my poor
tittle babies must suffer I almost
go crazy.
I did love Luther once, but I de*
1 | spise him now.
I stuck to him through thick and
thin—he’ll tell you so himself.
I’ve shielded him from the world
and given him every nickel I
earned.
I’ve tried to be a good wife; and
what have I got for it?
I went back to him many times
after he’d left me pennilese.

you so—he’ll tell you so himself if
’ he’ll tell the truth!
"I went back to him time and thin

and her eyes tilled up with tears.
"I have shielded him from the
I world. 1 have given him every nickel
I that I have earned when he would be
down and out anti come hack to tin-,
in every way I have tried to be a good
wife to him. And what have I got for
It?"
, H.r voice dropped to a strained
whiaper.
"In jail, before people, he .lust the
snme as accused me. And he knew
that he lied when he did It.”
She leaned forward in her chair, ex
citedly
Mr. Hewlett, won’t you show the j
reporter those letters you have tlui
he wrote me about the babies.' I ju’t
want to show what he said about t’i<
, child before It came. In the face of
wbat he says now."
Mr. Hewlett opened the top drawer
of his desk ami took out a pack of
letters.
Glenn's Letters Read.
"I think you're right. Mrs. Glenn," |
he said. He unfolded a letter.
"Places where Glenn speaks a Jit !<• .
too plainly I shall phrase In better
language." he told the report t. I
i "Here's one from Moultrie shortly of.-
er Glonn went there to build a house
for Mrs. Pldcoek. It must have been
written before they became affini
ties"
"My Dearest ami Sweetest Lit
tle Baby: Replying to yours re

you're feeling so much better. I'Ve
just finished supper. Does Mal

have wanted so to see you both.

I like it there fine. Your devoted,

“It's Another Boy."
Mr. Hewlett unfolded another let
ter. “How does this sound?" he asked.
"My Dearest Little Family, All:
I mean the whole bunch. So glad
to hear from you So it's another
boy. Is it? I «as in hopes it
would be a girl. Am certainly
glad you ate better anti hope you
have no bail luck and get well
soon, and strong enough to come

as that Will be your first change.
But I guess it will be some little
time yet before you can come.
Well. dear, you said send you a

named L. J., Jr. How does that
suit you? Kiss the kids for me
and tell Malvern to be good to
his brother. With lots of love and
kisses to you and the kids.
"YOUR HUBBY.’
"Don't you see. h" wanted the baby
named for him!" Mrs. Glenn ex
claimed, unsteadily. "Does that bear
out bls insinuations now?"
In another letter whiiji Mr. Hewlett
r. ad Glenn wrote:
"I hope you and the dear little
babies ate doing tine. I will
come home Saturday night week
and stay till Bunday night, which
will give me the whole day with
you all. If possible, I will stay
longer. Dearest, 1 am going to
surprise you soon, so be sweet
till I get there."
With lots of love to you and
the sweet little babies, DAD.”
Ran Away to Wed Glenn.
Detail by detail, the little mother
told her story. She had met him tn
lu r home town at Conyers iti 1908,
when lie had come there lo build a
house for her grandfather. He was
an expert carpenter. She had run
away and married him. Several times
lie had left her without notice, and in
I HOG she had sued him for a divorce
When Glenn heard of It he returned
to throw ids arms around Iter neck
and beg her to take him baek and to
drop tlie suit. The Hrs, time he hud
come back to her at midnight, when
site was at In r grandfather's house.
■ Ilf h id stood outside the window and
pleaded with lier to forgive him. He,
had put her little engagement ring he
had taken away with him buck on iter
finger ami she wan so happy.
But each time it was the same story
overhand "Ver. Tin y would come lo
Atlanta, live together for a few
months till lie would go away. She
would return lo her grandfather's or
go tn work Usually he cunie baek
broke and site would give Idm what
• site earned. She worked In a laundry,
doing repair work for 88 a week. rev.
el.ll times When be left her expei”-
ling the last baby and site could not KP
out to work, site had kept house and
cooked for some friends for iter board
and lodging.
Had Once Been Kind.
Hid lie had been kind to her, Ihough
the kindest lie had ever beep was
when the first baby was enminga H r
voice was f'titled when she spoke of it.
They had been so happy when lie
finally came. Glenn would come home
after Ids work during Hie dux and
would always want "his boy" to meet
Idin on the front steps. He would
take him over and tiny him ice eream
at tip- corner drug store w lien he grew
la rger.
Everything was going well until '
I Henn went tn Moultrie to build tlie ,
bungalow for Mrs." Pidcock. He had
been sent on the job hv a contractor
of Atlanta At fir-t lie had written
regularly ami tenderly, hut after a
time the letters were far apart and
cold. She used to lie awake nights
thinking about It. Then one day she
11. id heard he was paying attention to
,i "blonde" down there. When die
had written tn ask him about it. he
had answered that he "didn’t know
lint one woman, and she was old
enough to be his mother." The next
site heard was through a letter Some
body showed lu r Glenn had written
to Mrs. Pidcocl,. She didn’t remem
ber where it was written from. H<
had said to Ml- Pidcock
Love Letter to Other Woman.
"Darling, don't wait till No- I
veiuber to come to me. I can't
do without you any longer. Come
on and take me in your arms and
call me yours, as you have called
me before."
She didn't know' what to do, and
tin n she heard Glenn and the woman
had been tven by a man in Birming
ham. She wrote to the man because
site wanted to know the truth, and
this Is what he answered:
"Mrs. Glenn:
“You asked me to tell you ail
about Luther. It was one day last
week that I first saw him. He
was by himself the first time I
saw him. He was dressed in a
blue serge and brown hat and tan
shoes He certainly did look swell.
It was tills time that he told me
that lie and this woman were go
ing to El Paso. Texas, together. I
never saw him to talk to long at a
time again, but the next I did see
of him lie was dressed in a brow n I
-uit and tan shoes. The woman ,
witii him had on a linen Norfolk
suit and red belt, with a large
I black hat with two white plumes
on u She was a blonde
' I..it- r I MM tlti’iil ag.nr to
gether She was dressed in a
white serge suit witii the same
t at. I have not seen them since
Now Mrs Glenn, you asked me
to tell you ’list what passed be
tween it-. I hate to tel! you tills,
but I think you ought to know it.
I told him that lie certainly did
have a fine boy at his house, but.
to my sorrow, he told me that he
did not want to see any of them
. gain. He must have left Bir- I
mingham. I have not seen him
since."
•* ••
Told H«r of Other Love.
The next she heard was when she
got a letter from Glenn in Memphis, j
where he and Mrs Pidcock were H>
said he had found somebody he loved
better, and he never wanted to lay
eye- on Iyer or the children again He
said he would send money to support

her because she had money and for

tile money was gone, Glenn w ould go.
If he would desert one wife, and his
children had no permanent influence
on him. nobody else could hold him.
He would have soon tired of her.
8 man who would deliberately go
off and leave his wtfe and children

he declared. "I think every good cit
izen ought tt; assist in placing stripes
on ids black and shackles on his legs."
Glenn Can't Leave State.
Hewlitt is holding Glenn under a
proceeding that will not permit him to
leave the State without forfeiting a
SI,OOO bond, even if he is freed and
ordered to pay alimony.
"I have tracked Glenn and Mrs.
Pidcock for months from Oklahoma
t'ity to Panama, and 1 am determined
that the man shall support his family.
I will never let him rest until he does.
He is able to do it. and he must."
Mr. Hewlett declared two or three
secret organizations in Atlanta have
befriended Mrs. Glenn after they" had
made iniestigations about her and
found her to be a good woman.
"They found that she had only one
fault," he -aid, "and that was loving a
degenerate husband.”
Glenn Pleads Not
Guilty; Attacks Wife.
L. J. Glenn, who eloped with the
wife of Millionaire Pidcock, entered a
plea of not guilty to the charge of
desertion and abandonment when ar
raigned in the court of Judge Calhoun
this morning. The case was set for
trial the first Monday in May.
That he would bare the secrets of
hie homo life that had caused him to
leave his young wife and two chil
dren, was tile declaration of Glenn
after he had a conference with his
attorney. L. F McClelland
"I don't know that there will be
any attempt to prove Mrs. Glenn un
faithful." said the counsel, "I haven't
gone into the case thoroughly enough
to announce that yet, but It is certain
that It will be show n that Mrs. Glenn
was a most undesirable companion as
a wife and tliat Glenn was driven to
do what lie did.'
Neither Woman Present.
Mrs. Glenn wu." not in court when
her hugbund was arraigned tills
morning. Neither was Mrs. Pidcock,
for whom Glenn deserted his wife.
Tint father of Glenn, however walked
Into tlie court room Just before the
formal arraignment. •
Attorney McClelland and Glenn
were In a long conference before court
began. At its cor.elueion tlie counsel
said that the home life which Glenn
was i-vmpelled to endure would form
a large part of his defense.
Hi- had no comment to make when
lie was told that S. D. Held, father of
Mrs Pidcock, had sworn out a war
rant tn Mueon. charging Glenn with
violating the Mann act against whit
slavery. The wamnit was Issued hy
United States Commissioner Erwin
and was forwarded to the Commis
sioner in Atlanta. It will not be
served until Glenn is released from
tlie custody of tlie State
"I’m going io have no mercy for
her,” declared Glenn in an interview.
"She had none for me. "When our life
I nine unbearable she refused to
consider the matter of a divorce or
a separation. She told me that she
would send me to jail or to hell first.
“She drove me tn drink and debt
and ruin Now I inn going to tell all.
Slie tried to eompromise tlie case the
other day. She wanted fne to pay her
sto a week alimony. I wouldn't do it.
I shall flgiit it through now tliat she
