AMAZING LETTERS.

Some further amazing statements are contained m another letter m possession of "The People," m "Chicago May's" handwriting. We reproduce extracts from it as she has written it, thus giving some idea of the standard of the education the woman had received and acquired : — Dear Madame,--I thank you very much for your kind message. Also I accept your sympathy. You knowI am very much misunderstood m this affair. Of course, you know when I first met this man Guerin I was visiting my mother at Dublin. Pie induced mc to return to London with him, later on to Paris — he then himself had only been mar-

ried five weeks, and four weeks af-

ter I came back to London with him he was arrested at aimes. I had no idea at the time what for. I came back again to Paris at his request, and was arrested as an accomplice. After waiting one year, for trial, I was sentenced to live years' penal sevt. also ten years' police supervision. I only done 3 years as some friends of mine at

the English Embassy got me apardon from the President of the Republic. Dear Madam this man Guerin has been the ruin of my life. You see what a boaster he is, he even speaks about the wives of the officials m his history. When my husband, Capt. , heard about •what I done he went to havanna and died while I was m the French Prison. When I came back to England I meant never again to come m contact with Guerin, or any one of his class. I went home to my husband's people and stopped some time but of course things were not very pleasant. I returned to Londone and lived under the protection of a man named . When I HEARD EDDY GUERIN ESCAPED I tried my best to hide from him. I lived m Kingstown some months y Finally he found me and forced me to go to Aix la chapelle with him, me paying the expenses of the trip he was like a skeleton. . . He could not do anything m England and was afraid on the Continent, i Plainly speaking he had lost his nerve he suffered so much m getting away. While he was m Milan I came back to London and was very glad to get rid of him. Then he I sent me a telegram asking for ten ! pounds to be sent through Cooks-— which I did not send. ££ ■& Yours j truly, May Churchill. j
