James I. then instituted an oath of allegiance as a test of Catholic loyalty, and many Catholics took the oath without scruple, including the Archpriest Blackwell. But it is remarkable that, so little did the Catholics believe in the authenticity of this brief, another and an angry one had to come from Rome the following September, to confirm and enforce it.

Elizabeth T. Bartlett of Arlington was made historian and Mrs. Mary L. Colvin of East Orange, corresponding secretary. Resolutions were adopted in memory of Henry B. Blackwell and William Lloyd Garrison. Professor Francis Squire Potter, corresponding secretary of the National Association, delivered a very able address. In the fall of 1909 two young women in East Orange, Dr.

To the end of his weapon he fitted an iron washer taken from the bedstead. Then he waited for his opportunity. His chance came through the good nature of Scanlan. The jailer was in the habit of going down town to loaf for an hour or two with old cronies after he had locked up for the night. Blackwell pretended to be out of chewing tobacco and asked the guard to buy him some.

"No question about it. He brought no horse for you to ride away on. Bill admitted it, though he didn't know what was planned. Curly heard Soapy ask Blackwell whether he had seen your body." The boy shuddered and drew a long sobbing, breath. "I've been a fool, Father and worse." "Forget it, son. We'll wipe the slate clean. I've been to blame too." It was no place for outsiders.

The rest of the day was spent in setting to work those whom we felt we could trust to use the portrait parle to locate the mysterious dark- haired Marie who seemed to cross our trail at every turn, yet who proved so elusive. Miss Ashton had been busy on the case of the missing Betty Blackwell, but as yet there was no report from any of the agencies which she had set in motion to locate the girl.

She always answered the business points but entirely ignored complainings, charges against other people and all extraneous matters. She relates a significant incident which occurred during this summer campaign when she and Antoinette Blackwell spent a Sunday at Gerrit Smith's. He had established at Peterboro and was maintaining at his own expense a Free church. Mrs.

Further down the hall, by the "office," Dorgan and Ogleby were storming, protesting that "influence" would "break" everyone concerned, from Carton down to the innocent patrolmen. Kennedy listened a moment, then turned to Clare Kendall. "I will leave Miss Blackwell in your care," he said quietly.

As the street had been quite deserted at the time this detail could be plausibly introduced with no chance of a denial. Fendrick, who had heard the shouting of the men locked in the express office, stopped the robber, but Blackwell broke away and ran down the alley. The sheepman followed and caught him.

As a compromise, however, George Blackwell was appointed archpriest with secret instructions, it was said, to consult Garnet, the Jesuit superior in England. The selection was singularly unfortunate, as neither from the point of view of prudence nor of reliability was Blackwell fitted for the extremely delicate position which he was called upon to fill.

Harris had disappeared, there was no clue to Marie Margot, no trace of the new blonde woman, not a syllable yet about Betty Blackwell. "It seems as if the forces of Dorgan are demoralized," I remarked the afternoon after the raid on Margot's. "We have them on the run that's true," agreed Kennedy, "but there's plenty of fight in them, yet. We're not through, by any means."
