THE DREYFUS SCANDAL
Madame Dreyfus has made the following statement: —“The truth about my husband cannot be suppressed much longer. He never fails to protest his innocence. His letters to me are sadder than a wail over the dead, and their heart-rending pathos could emanate only from a guiltless soul. Hia all-absorbing thought is to blot out the stain of treason with which his persecutors try to tarnish out name. The martyr of the He du Diable lives but for the rehabilitation of his family. Our children must not be burdened with a dishonoured name, particularly as my husband is innocent. Colonel Henry’s horrible end is part of the payment for the penalty incurred by reason of the cruel wrong done my husband. His disgraceful death is the natural outcome of his attempts to dishonour a good officer. Colonel Henry’s associates may also pay the penalty.”
