Willard Patterson Maintains Circumstantial
Evidence Isn’t Worth a Perforated Penny.
Lived at "Earle’s Folly.”
The original story that reached
America • f her relations with Earle
narrated a meeting in the fields, a
walk home hand In It d, swift and
ardent wooing, marriage within the
month and a start on a tour of the
world, which wound up prematurely
in the country home in Monroe, O--
ange County, known as "Earle's Fol-
T>"
THer story to-day sets right much >f
that early fiction, for the meeting
wiih Earle seems to have been con
ventional.
“How did you come to give yourself
to a man of Earle’s matrimonial rec
ord ?” was asked.
, "I knew nothing of his past until
after our mairiage,” she replied.
“Whatever his remit;.tion in Americi

"It was a terrible sho< . to find that
1 had been so utterly deceived, but I
accepted the explanation and excuses
offered by Mr. Earle and his assur
ances that I would never have any

“After our weddi.." we spent two
months on *’ Continent. In Sep- J

the wedding, we went to America, and
lived happily at his place in Monro* .

in April. 1912. I remained with him
in America un last January, and
then came here to visit my mother,
with whom I have since lived. It was '
arranged that Mr. Earle would come I
here for the summer.

Mrs Earle declined to anticipate by
publication the specific evidence she
is reserving for .the court Thus the
name of the co-respondent is with

vincing manner of speech, she thinks
Mhe has ample ground for her pell

as much as a perforated penny, and a

Ask Williard Patterson, the Forsyth
Theater treasurer. He will tell you
that the two statements are as true
as gospel, for he knows.
Patterson .returned to Atlanta last
week after a “tour af tanks with the
great magic lantern opry, ‘Quo
Vadis?’ ’’ as he himself describes it,
and on this tour he discovered the
value of circumstantial evidence and
the nature of the rural police.

"I didn’t tell anybody, though. The
knowledge of my greatness meant too
much to me to impart It to anyone
else.
"My route was through North Caro

the same set of drummers on every
train and in every hotel.
"Pretty soon 1 noticed them trying
to size me ui> each night as I entered

"One night I heard a couple of

that my friends, the drummers, were
watching me.
"I stalled around and was about to
go to the amusement palace witjj my

" ‘Wait thar a minute, young fel

“ ‘What have you got In that air

“rth, hq was eager to see the magic

away.

" ‘I know what It Is all right,’ said
he. I know that you’ve been playing

NEWPORT, R. I., Auk. 16.—While
tiie Jackies cheered. Secretary of the
Navy Daniels and Admiral J. e. Der.
Ker, commander-in-rhief of the At

tain George \\ . Kline, commander of
the b.Utlrrhtp Idaho, the "battle ef-
flciency pennant.” A complimentary’
letter from President Wilson also was
read.
In his speech Secretary Daniels
drew attention to a phase of the ear
lier lift of President Wilnon that ap
parently has escaped most of the bi
ographers.
"As a bov,” he said, "it was the
highest ambition of Woodrow Wilson
to enter the naval academe and be
come a naval officer. If his father
had not led him into other lines, the
probability is that to-day he would
be with us as a captain or an ad
miral-commanding the New Jersey,
