Conllnufd from Tnne Oh '
thing of the past nnd promised not to

The pence of the Chishcjlm house

when Mrs. Chlsliolm was stricken with

Chlsliolm ngreed.
By the spring of 1010 Mr. Chlsliolm
became suspicious ngain. There fol
lowed a letter nt this time from. Parker
to Mrs. Chlsliolm.
By the first of this enr things had
reached so precarious a state that
Chlsliolm had another conference with
Pnrker. No concrete nnswer to tlie
situation was given.' Once again things
slipped along.
In .Tuly Chlsliolm sent his wife to
the White mountnins, but sue returned
in two days and Chlsliolm scheduled i
the Inst conference.
Chlsliolm Presents Ultimatum '
"Take her or leave her, either one
or the other, or face n suit for aliena
tion," he told Parker.
"I can't take her," Pnrker answered,
nccording to the papers. "I've got to
educate my sons."
Chlsliolm gave Parker ten das to
think the matter over. Mrs. Chls
liolm packed n bag, nnd the next day
she nnd Pnrker left. Chisholm re
turned from work nnd found his wife
gone. Mrs. Pnrker phoned him her
husband wns missing, nnd wjiile they
were talking over the phone the two
principals arrived back in their re
spective homes.
Pnrker then offered to post a bond,
to be forfeited if he suw Mrs. Chis

that he would sue.
A week ngo Mrs. Chisholm answered
questions nsked by her husband's law

She snld that her husband was "the
Kindest mnn in the world," but that she
still loves Parker.
The case stands now :
Pnrker nnd Ills wife nie separated;
Chisholm nnd his wife hnvc separated,
nnd the two Pinker children and the
Chisliolins' dniighter -nre deprived of
