Mother couldn’t earn enough to give me those things and I had given up hope when Mr. Browning told me I was to be Sylvia Browning. Doesn't that sound grand?” Mother Confirms Part. The girl's mother, a widow, partly confirmed the adoption story, assert- ing that Browning already had entered into negotiations with her for the adoption of Sylvia. A few hours later, when Browning was reached by tele: phone at his home in Kew Gardens, he denied the story of both the party and the promise to adopt the girl.

She especially denied stories that she had been engaged to several men, one @ plumber’s helper and an other a dentist. ; “I would rather be the poorest girl in New York than go through all this,” she sobbed. “Yes, if 1 had known that this was going to happen, T would have starved to death rather than offer myself up for adoption.
