She told Mr. Garvan off Instances where she and others had Mrs. Thaw urge her husband to make trouble for White, anil also of -j instances when Thaw actually flourished before his friends a revolver and declared that he was going to kill him with it.

Miss MviClure described at great length the attentions of thfj two men at this period. They seeme to be the most bitter rivals for the gjrl's favor. Miss Nesblt was at this time living with her mother and brother who were in very humble circumstances. According to the story tolu byj Miss Mc Clure. Mrs.

Holman, the mother, met moth Thaw and Wh'te und took a violent prejudice to Thaw.

"While at Pompton Miss Nesbit.

Miss McClure said, was taken sick. She had an operation performed at (the school. Following this White tookjher out of school and sent her and per mother abroad. They were to remain abroad for some time. I It was at this time that haw heard what White had done and ihe at once followed the girl abroad, learned where they were and began to shower the girl with gifts again.

White had not accompanied Miss Nesblt and she was alone iii Paris and London with her mother. Thaw pursued his attentions to such an extent, MJss McClure said, that it was not long before Mies Nesblt, against the wishes of her mother, went off with Thaw. She left her mother stranded on the other side, and the mother had to cable Mr. White for money with which to' retijrn to this country. She came home alone.

Thaw and Miss Nesbit traveled around over Europe together for a while, but. according to Edna McClure. Thaw'B treatment of the girl was so brutal that she was forced to leave him.
