"TAKE MY ADVICE; LEAVE BROOKLYN" WITNESSES IN LOVETT DI VORCE CASE THREATENED Two Anonymous Letters Cause Sensation When Read in Court. Neither Was Signed. klyn. You By Prlrste Las sod Wire. New York, June 22.—Death threats against one of the many witnesses opposed to Mrs. Graco E. Lovett were revealed today when the trial of the action for divorce, brought by the wealthy real estate man of Brook lyn, was resumed before Justice Mad ddx In the Kings county supreme court. A sensation was produced by the ex* hlbltton of two anonymous letters re celved by Mrs. Inex Courtney, the ob ject of which palpa\>y was to Intlml date h**r ho that she would not testify for Lovett. Both letters produced In court today were printed. This explained why Lovett’s lawyer had Mrs. LoVett print the address, “Mrs. Inez Courtney, No. 1136 Bergen street, Brooklyn,” yester day. The first letter read: "Take advice nnd leave Brookl Then* is nothing in It for you. will regret It If you do not* The second letter, which was post marked Juno It. read; If you take the stand vour life Is fn dahgtr." Neither was signed. Lawyer Ketchum, Mrs. Lovott 1 lawyer, showed both letters to her and asked her If she had written them. Mrs. Lovett said: "I did not.” William H. Kinsley, a handwriting expert, said that he had compared the letters with tho address which Mrs. Lovett printod yesterday and that all three were from the pen of the same person. Mrs. Courtney was recalled today and flatly contradicted Mrs. Webb, the mother of Mrs. Lovett, who testified that she was present when Mrs. Lovett wrote the letter to Grant and that It was Indited and forwarded by Mrs. Coutmey In a spirit of fun.
