From this circlo, aud from Mr. ton's intimato aedooclutions with it, soma rumors and suspiclony a:080 amoug my a¥i coue grogation, which lod- them to poracvore with fquestions and to originate mvestigations, ;;apenlnlly iuto tho alfairs of Mr. Milton, from whom alono, ny thoy gonorally bo- oved, tho rumory ‘agaiust mo origiuated, In this I was constantly and voliemontly assured by Mri Moulton that thoy woro mistaken, and yot their zenl in my defenso made thom impatient of ny silougo, and anxious to_doal in a wummary mauner with Mr., Tilton, Had I allowed thowm to do this, it was obvious that Mr. Tilton it OULD HAVE DEEX GEATLY ENRAGED § that sll his formor unjurt suspicions of mo Lvnuld bLave bocn confirned ; aud thnt o woutd 4 ‘,P Lad overy motive which way nocessury to induco him to broalt up tlio penco bolwoon s, ng 2 uhmuku 8ome snch “public attack upon me ) l: n: fually mado. But_ono thing was con- : ub Bud apparant : When Theodore, by tectur- 0g O OhErwito, was yiuswosous, i was vory goulal and affoctiousta to me. Whonever Lio met with rebull, and was in pocunisry trouble, o scowled mrontnumfily upon o s the suthor of his troubles; and Moulton Limaelf moomod At tmos to ncouds o of mdifferouce to Tilton's wlsfortunes. It wus in the midst of complications iko thoso, maybo, that & part of those eveuts happonod. —Shortly aftorward, In a thoroughly wornud and dopressod mood, discouragod by the apparout belplossos of extricating 'Lilton from his aitliculues, ot of saving his fumily from tho blight which'lio hag since fastoned upon jt, with oven mote destruc- ;.;ur ‘?fl”fi‘x.fi'&g? ‘m ;!nnulllburu than I thou feared, 0 Moulton, of 1 glven extracts evon moro e WICKEDLY ADDLED than hin other quotatious; for ho has repro: ed two oxtracts from this letter as co:&‘;v.:‘:)l‘::: pointa of two separate lattors, and hay astfully givon the improssion that they wero written 1 or after June, 1878, whorens tho lotter was dated Fob, 5, 1872, He forther says that thus Joit was wiitten for tho purpose of Lolng shown to him, 1 had no tdea of such & thing being dono, a5 tho lottor shows plniuly onoughs on its faco, and did not suthorizo any such use of thut lot- tor, which was supposod by mo to bo writton snd rocoived in the most sncred confidenco. Iom now informoed aun inepaction of the original wonld doubtloss rofresh my memory concerning :ho circumstances, but this Ar. sfoulton donics 0 me. The lettor of Mrs, Tilton, which is hore partly quoted, is aa follows ¢ MRg, TILTON TO BKEUHXR. B TOURSPAY. X leave for tho Wost Monday noxt. - ow siid X was 0 loarn you wors your own self Bunday morning, Theodoro's mind Lias been hard toward you of late, and I think ho proposcs an Iutorview with you by word or note, befora leaving home, If 80, bo 1ol cast down, X béar this almost always, but tho God In ‘whom wo trust will delivor us all safely, 1 know you do, and are willlng abundantly, to help him, sud I also know your embarrassment. I antfclpato my Tesleen Arip, where L may be alone with him, exceed- gly. I now como in my narrative to give an accounk of the origin of the SOMEWIAT FAMOUS TRIPARTITE AGREEMENT. Shoruly after the furegoing lottor was written, M. Tilton roturnod to the city thoroughty dis- c:mrl‘swd with the result of kis lecturing tour. Tho Golden Age, which bad then been cstablish~ od for hbout twelvo months, bad not succeeded, and was undoratood to bo' losing money. 1lis [necumnry obligations were preksing, uud, al- hough Lis claim against Bowon for violating his two contracts had ® yosr proviously boen put undor the exclusive control of Moulton, with a view of settlement, it had unot as yoi been offectod. About this timo Mr. AMoulton, vho was aicky sont for me and thzlwczl mo &_gslley-proof of tho article prepored by Mr. Tilton for the Golden Age, und which g singo boon published in tho Tiuokyu pupors, 1 which ho embodied o copy of u_lottor written b{l him ta Mr. Bowen, dated Jaon. 1, 1874, in which ho oharged Bowén with making scandale ous accusations against my moral charactor. 'Ihis was the firet time thnt I'had evor scon thoso charges, and I had never board of tucm excopt by more rumor,—Alr. Bowen nover laving ot auy time said & word to mo on tho subject. I was amazed at tho proposed publication. I did not then undoratand tho real objact of giving circu- Intion to such slanders. My firm imbrossion was that AMr. Telton desigued, under cover of an attack upon mo in the uame of another, to open the way for Lthe publication of bia own protondod porsonal riovauces. I protostod againat tho publicatin in the strongest terms, but woa iuformed that it way_uot iutended ns a hostilo act to mysclf, but to Mr. Bowen. I did not any tho loss insis upon my protost sgainst this publication. On its belng shown to Mr. Bowen, I faid I would think it ovor, aud porhaps writo some- thing. ‘This wus Fnd;y or Baturdsy, Tho cov- onuut appoared on Eridey morning, and tho alarm was sounded on me immediatoly that Theo- dore would do somothing dreadful if not re- strained.
